Hopefully if enough people leave for mars and the moon the Earth will become better for those of us who stay behind. So I'm all for people leaving for mars.

No. I wouldn't like to handle the immense amounts of radiation seeping through the shuttle taking me there.

Terraforming is an interesting idea, but in the end I think it would be counterproductive.

Concentrate on making where we're living comfortable, and leave the rest for industry.
