I doubt that it has to do with light shining through copper. From what I can remember, green light can be caused by burning argon, neon, or xenon gas, which are all in the Earth’s atmosphere. However it is difficult to remember which one. Someone I know vaguely is a chemistry teacher at the most advanced chemistry lab in the world, he’d know, but I can’t remember the places name, it’s Emory or something.
