The beta chrome extension allow to stream at 1080p how can I set Greenscreen.io to 1080p ?

Unless you've forked and extended Greenscreen, it's agnostic of the display resolution. If you want 1080p channels, you need to style those views with a 1080p viewport in mind, and utilize better/higher quality assets like vector graphics.
Greenscreen is doing nothing more than loading a page with an iframe to render the URL you defined for the channel.
If I ask greenscreen to display a 1080p picture it displays it at 720p and crop the rest
The chromecasts have been tried on 4k and 2560x1440 and 1080p monitors, it still display everything in 720p
Would it be possible to link the picture you're using?
I'm running into this issue as well. Here is an image I used to try it: http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/0/0c/Vector_Video_Standards8.svg

Right now, we have a limitation where the "UI" layer is at 720p even though video can run at 1080p.
So we can display a video in 1080p but can't with a picture (webpage). Maybe Chromecast want to make sure their UI is responsive,,, but since there is no realtime controls this doesn't make any sense.
Haven't tested the image yet myself, but this may explain things: https://developers.google.com/cast/docs/media
tl;dr - It appears that Google is limiting the size of images
(docs agree with what @wGEric found)
