Making another planet a home ?

This is another post after long time again as usual, I have reason that I have become father of two. Its amazing that time just fly by when you are awake and sleep :) Today it is about moving out of earth.

I just read a news about Stefan Hawkins about the long term livability of earth and we must flee earth. It was amazing for me to realize that the thought process which he has got.

The theory goes like, In hundred years of time, it will be difficult for us to manage and live in this our mother earth. This is due to disasters from inside earth and outside of it. So, it was high time for me to find what human had already done for this part.

I was literally amazed that there were so many human being thinking about it and also did much about it. It was my first choice that Mars to be the next possible nearest planet to make it our home. It is worse that the planet is much worse than the earth that we cant even imagine living there.

But there were so many work already done to analyse how do we make Mars livable. see the image below

This story goes like making the ice in Mars north pole to melt and get the water out of it to make ocean, river and make it like earth, remember it is an 1000 year plan (??!!) can you imagine what you and me will be doing by then (!!?)

But at least there is a thought process about the very distant future, which is still imaginable.

My simple question is, when we try all these very hard work to make Mars livable, why cant we save our earth from dying, which could be a easy option instead ??
