Colonizing other planets is not a solution. It is vastly harder to terraform Mars than to repair the damage we've done to Earth. Multiple technological Holy Grails must be discovered in order to make it even remotely possible. Not happening.

A colony established on Mars with current technology would be completely dependent on Earth for food and other supplies.

If we've passed the red line already, then it's all over and we may as well live it up while we still can.

I didn't say terraform.
