A green belt is an area of protected open land surrounding a city, maintained to prevent urban sprawl and preserve natural space.
In martial arts, a green belt is an intermediate rank between white and black, typically indicating a practitioner has moved beyond beginner status: She earned her green belt in karate last month.
