The green wire ground is a safety ground to prevent possible electrical shock when connected to electrical power. If you are dry camping with no power then you do not need any grounding.
If you are using a generator, then the grounding is via the cord to the generator just as it would be to a power pedastal.
This statement is true ONLY if the neutral and ground connections on the generator are connected together at the generator. Not all generators are thus connected. If a specific generator does not have the neutral and ground connected together, then the RV connected to the generator is not properly grounded.
