First, we should note that the all-green flag has been retired since the fall of Gadhafi and replaced with the Senussi Standard, which flew over Tripoli during the reign of King Idris I of Libya (chief of the Senussi Muslim Order).
However, the reasons that Gadhafi chose to make the flag green are several. Green is the traditional color of Islam and represents growth and flourishing, given the rarity of seeing green in a desert-country like Libya. The color also represents Gadhafi's the Green Book, a 1975 collection of Gadhafi's personal views on everything from science to history and which rarely features facts of any substance. The Green Book was required instruction in Libya while Gadhafi was in power.
When Gaddafi came to power in Libya, he removed the flag of the Kingdom of Libya as a symbol of his change of Libyan politics and organization. When Gaddafi was in the process of being overthrown, the Libyan Rebels chose to revert to the flag of the Kingdom of Libya since it was a flag that all Libyans could coalesce behind and was an explicit rejection of Gaddafi.
The old flag of Libya was a plain green flag. They decided to change their flag to look almost like the of Malawi, only that the flag of Malawi has a Sun and the new flag of Libya as a Moon.
Libya changed its flag after the 2012 Libyan Revolution, and the flag that is used right now was used in the 1950s which was before Gaddafi regime.
