We are told that CO2 is a major greenhouse gas and trace increases cause global warming.

Mars = 96% CO2
Earth = 0.04% C02

I wonder why Mars isn’t burning up.

Don’t try to terraform the surface.

Tunnel. Build underground compounds and ultimately underground cities. No reason to live on the surface full time.

Terraforming Mars would kill off the Delta Smelt!

On an episode of Star Trek Enterprise they were terraforming Mars by directing comets to impact on Mars. They had already gotten the pressure up by doing that so that pressure suits weren’t needed. See, its that simple. All we have to do is lasso us up some comets.

I had heard one theory that Ponderosa pine trees were well suited to the conditions on Mars around the edges of the polar ice cap. Having plants that would work would be ideal because you would only need to transplant the seeds on the trip there. From there you can either plant them when you land or grow them into saplings on the ship and plant them when you land.

Not only would Mars slowly get breathable air, but it would also smell like vanilla/butterscotch so I consider that a win/win. Though, since it hasn’t gained much traction, I assume there were some concerns and doubts that drug it to a halt.

I don't know. But a lot of brave men and women will give their lives in the process.

"Mars’ atmosphere is made up of 96% carbon dioxide, 1.93% argon and 1.89% nitrogen, along with trace amounts of oxygen and water."

~~~~~~~~~~~

CALLING AL GORE: Since .04% (40 ppm) of our atmosphere is carbon dioxide, which means we're all gonna die(!) from Gorebull Wahruming...

WHY -- with an atmosphere of 96% carbon dioxide -- isn't Mars as hot as Venus?

Fill a large rocket with algae and amphioxis and crash it on the poles. Wait 500 million years, and voila!
