Out of the forest maybe, but would you count on green color on the sea? I have read somewhere (don´t remember where) that if you are on the sea/water you should use only red color for distress signaling. Other colors could be considered non distress signals. Maybe someone from coast guard wrote it. But I don´t really know. Is here anyone who could confirm whether it´s true or not? Preferably some SAR/coast guard folks? Is it really better to pack red laser when on sea or wherever? I would be interested to know.
