Ubuntu is orange. But I want it to be green. Can I customise it so that all folders and tool bars will be green?

For example, you can use Unity Tweak Tool (if you use Unity) or the same utility with only Gnome (if you use Gnome)

Do you want to keep the default theme and just change the accent colours or do you want to install a new theme completely? Both are a viable option but the method depends on which version of ubuntu you have installed. Here are the procedures for (almost) all versions of ubuntu here:
This is a guide on how to theme Ubuntu prior to 17.10: How To Install Themes In Ubuntu 14.04 and 16.04 | itsfoss.com
For ubuntu 17.10 onwards: How to Install Themes in Ubuntu 18.04 and 17.10 | itsfoss.com
Now that you know how to theme ubuntu to turn it green I'd suggest "Ambience and radiance colors" (for ubuntu 16.04 and below). To install it open a terminal and type these commands:
sudo add-apt-repository ppa:ravefinity-project/ppa
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install ambiance-colors radiance-colors
From ubuntu 17.10 onwards this option isn't viable. I'd suggest the adapta theme with papirus-adapta icons. to install the adapta theme type in a terminal these commands:
sudo apt-add-repository ppa:tista/adapta
sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install adapta-gtk-theme
To install the icons type:
sudo add-apt-repository ppa:papirus/papirus
sudo apt update && sudo apt install papirus-icon-theme
This will also install other variants of the papirus icons.

For example, you can use Unity Tweak Tool (if you use Unity) or the same utility with only Gnome (if you use Gnome)
