Terraform earth first
Fucking this!!!!
Mars is less habitable than earth, and we're gunning to make earth uninhabitable.
Usually, terraforming includes belching greenhouse gases to melt polar ice caps. Arrival with Charlie Sheen plays on this.
We currently are with fossil fuels.
After terraforming Earth, we should begin the process of terraforming Mars by nuking the fuck out of its core to restore its magnetosphere. Doing this properly will take us thousands of years.
I thought the goal of terraforming was to make the environment habitable for us?
In the cold and thin atmosphere of mars, greenhouse gases would make it more habitable, on earth reducing them and reversing their effects would be the goal of terra forming.
