Brown seems to be such a default colour for things in nature and in day to life. Why is it so common for things to be or turn this colour in contrast to the vast array of other colours around?

In Life in Colours from David Attenborough he explains that most mammals don’t have bright colors as they don’t have a wide spectrum of colours they can see. Colours in the animal kingdom is usually either for camouflage, to show dominance or to impress females.
Apart from that, earth and tree trunks can be brown but also many different colors. I’m not sure that there is more brown than green out there.
