But seriously the fact that anyone ever mentions Mars colonization as a realistic strategy to do better than earth shows how stupid they are. Imagine the least habitable biome on earth where no one wants to live, imagine it even worse by unchecked climate change and realize it’s still just ashtoningly easier to live there than the most optimistic expectations of Mars.
Anyone who says that is pretty stupid, but I don’t think I’ve ever met someone who actually held that position
I will say that working to colonize Mars will teach us to fix the Earth… But it would be real nice if we stopped fucking up the Earth in the first place
Sea steading, BioShock here we come…
