“if we can figure out how to live on mars then we can figure out how to live on earth and keep it beautiful”

which reaction do you have:
a) hell yes let’s go to mars and we can solve our problems here
b) forget mars let’s just solve our problems here

Building @warpcast and @farcaster, new dad, like making food

B

The statement implies that the issues we have on earth are harder to solve than getting to Mars

So I don’t see why we wouldn’t just tackle the hardest problem first - which is fixing our own home.
