Great idea. Lets go to Mars and exploit the resources, just like we did on this planet. And
then, when Mars is too screwed up to live on, we can move to Venus. And then Saturn. And then...
And then, when we run out of solar system, we can raise more money and build rockets to go to the next
galaxy, and exploit their resources...
Wait a second. That isn't humanity I'm describing. It's a race of parasites.

Well, you and your descendants, if you have any, can stay on this planet with over 6 billion other people
and share limited resources. Unless you can convince a good chunk of that 6 billion to commit suicide,
to have one child at the most, or to go to war and massacre each other, then those who live on Earth will be
facing increasing scarcity in the not too distant
future. Our plan is not to destroy Mars, but to turn a frozen desert into an oasis where
people, animals, and plants
can abound and thrive. By taking on the challenges of converting a hostile world into a home for life we
will learn facts and techniques which will help those who stay on Earth use the resources of our home planet
more efficiently.
I have three children and I want them to enjoy prosperity and freedom. Fortunately, those who believe
in having children and growing the human race have the most descendants so their views will always be the
dominant view in every generation. Maybe when you have children you will feel differently.
