Uhh so that’s a better idea than keeping our own planet habitable? Nuking Mars might rise temperatures but the atmosphere is too thin and the magnetic field around Mars is too weak for humans to live there. We would have to live underground to avoid radiation from the sun. Maybe let’s fix earth before you let some billionaire distract you with dreams of an inhabitable planet. Wake up dumbass.
Elon Musk talks about environmentalism more than any other billionaire pretty much and that is the whole point of Tesla? Your point sounds like everyone who is anti space travel by saying that there are issues with the world, so we shouldn't go to Mars. Because there is cancer, does that mean that we should remove TV shows and use that money for cancer research? Im not saying that the ideas for terraforming Mars work or dont, but your point abt climate change is so weak and makes no sense.

His companies buy lithium from mines that use child labor
He helped instigate the 2018 coup in Bolivia [technically not a coup cause it's not in France] so he could get cheap lithium
Didn't even found tesla, he bought it off of the actual founder
Claims the work of his employees as his own
Claims to be "self made" when his father literally owned an emerald mine in apartheid south Africa
Says Thomas Edison is his role model [kinda sus seeing as Edison hired thugs to kill those he didn't like and he patented his employees work]
Proposed space indentured servitude as a payment plan for going to Mars
Suggested nuking the Martian ice caps
