The fuck guys? Why are we trying so hard to fuck ourselves into corner? It’s not like we have a backup plan. This is the only planet we have.
But what about Mars, Musk will say /s
Mars would be really difficult to live on even if we could get there. My senior design project in college was a mission to mars. The main issues we ran into were radiation on the journey there, radiation on the surface (Mars has a thin atmosphere nd no magnetic field), that means we would need to find caves underground. And Lastly, and probably most importantly, supply lines to Mars would have to be sent ahead of time, and we basically have to just hope everything goes according to plan.
Seems like Elon Musks idiotic dream is to piss away the planet we have so he can get rich. I’d love to make space travel more affordable, and common, but that’s just not the reality we live in.
p.s. I realize you were joking. It just happens to be a topic I know a little bit about.
That always bugs me. To live on Mars you’d need basically a perfect food production, recycling system and economic system to make it all happen. Why don’t we make that happen here on Earth first is before using a place a hundred million miles away as an experiment? You’re only the richest man in the planet being buddies with soon to be the most powerful man on the planet (again), so not much of an excuse except “don’t wanna”.
And that’s aside from all the demons that’d need killing.
So… you don’t need to find caves. Just bring some excavators, and some prefab-structures and bury them.
This would then let you set up some place with useful resources (light for solar power, ice for drinking and stuff.
Personally, though, I vote we send Musk to the other Sister Planet. The one that’s full-on angry-goth-girl, complete with the sulphuric acid. Don’t judge, as far as planets go, she’s freaking hot.
No matter how bad it gets on earth, it will still be easier to survive on earth than Mats or Venus or the moon or wherever.
The planet will be perfectly fine. It will likely get even better once most life is dead, again.

Troglodytes and ass clowns rule this country from within their iron sphincters.
Never too late to tickle open those sphincters!
…. But they’re anal retentive. You really don’t want to tickle that sphincter. Most have been holding since the 80’s
Well, people were wondering what Biden will do with his remaining time as president. Now we know.
He’s such a massive disappointment. His entire legacy is now “first president to pardon his own kid”
This is only surprising if you thought Biden actually cared about the climate. The IRA was only ever tangentially a climate bill. It was primarily aimed at jobs, deficits, and protecting American car companies.
But it was sold as this big climate thing and people pointing out the marketing didn’t match the product were just continually shouted down.
Well here we are folks.
