The question here is what do you mean by "white light", or "green", do you mean
the entire visible spectrum?, do you mean what you see as white on a CRT?, is
green one wave length?, is green a range of wavelengths?, what range?  

The real difficulty is that we are talking about the perception of colour, not
some mathematical model of it. If the original poster could specifiy exactly
why they want to do the conversion I may be able to help some more
