    So we are on the cusp of feasibly colonizing other worlds but the idea of colonizing our own world as it becomes less and less habitable over time with the same technology is somehow entirely alien to you.

    Make it make sense.

      We’re on the cusp of being able to ship huge amounts of materiel to Mars to support a small colony.

      We’re not really on the cusp of being able to run a fully self-supporting colony. We’re pretty far from being on the cusp of being able to do the same en-mass on earth.

      You made the argument yourself we are already making it uninhabitable for us. And if living in a dome is okay for you then go to one and stop wasting our time. When your dome fails don’t come crying.

        And when your ecosystem calls it quits after the 10,000th oil spill, don’t come crawling to my dome looking for help.
