I'm very new to photography, I have a EOS 800D. Sometimes I try to take a picture, noticing the focus box on the screen is red not green which won't let me take a picture. Why is that?

In general, the reason therefor is, that the object you are trying to focus on is not in the focusing range, in which the lens on your camera is able to focus.
