A related term to consider is go green
. Currently I can only find this in Cambridge dictionary.

I agree, not having 'green' as a synonym of 'ecofriendly' seems to be a big oversight. I note the oewn-03081365-a is a very similar sense, but I think we can keep both.
For 'go green', I think the only question is compositionality, but I think it is okay and we have other terms such as 'go Dutch' that are similar.

I would vote against 'go green,' but the limits are always hard to impose. The argument "because we already have X" is not strong enough to me.
from english-wordnet.
'go green' has 233 occurrences so is certainly a term with enough significance, and is more frequent than similar terms ('go red' @ 109 and 'go black' @ 103).
The compositionality question is whether this synset for 'go' already covers the meaning of the collocation. I would say probably not but it is a borderline case...
@arademaker is right that 'go Dutch' is a poor justification as this term has not much to do with the Netherlands, where as 'go green' can be paraphrased as 'become ecofriendly'
