This is entirely untrue, by the way. Climate change is anthropogenic, and no amount of sticking your head in the sand’ll change that.

Living on the Moon? It’ll be more convenient — shorter time to transport goods and materials to build and terraform it. Also will have a nice view of the planet you didn’t want to live on, and laugh Everyday.

Yes. I can imagine jumping and I’m officially over the moon. :P

For a longer term, perhaps it’s better off moving to another solar system completely. Somewhere where the star dies after 5 billion years from now.

And while many problems have been brought up, one has seldom been brought up. If you were to live on the moon, it might be exciting for the first 6 months or so, but eventually, the excitement will fade away, and you'll be living on a baron, gray rock for the rest of your life, either in a small habitat or in a bulky suit. You will suffer severe muscular atrophy, bone weakening, to a point where earth gravity would challenge you greatly. One of the most important factors is, It would be a constant night time, with the sun peaking out every day but no blue or bright sky of any kind to greet it, which could lead to tiredness, sadness, and hunger. There will likely be constant work and caution. With all this, the eternal night, the lack of the world humans brains evolved to feel comfort in, the feeling of isolation, the inability to walk outside without armor, and the health risks like radiation and muscular atrophy, it seems like life on the moon or europa or even mars to a lesser extent would be incredibly hard for many to manage.

What do you guys think? Would you live on mars? Do you think these factors will come into play in the near future?

Spinning underground or dome cities, optional travel to Earth and back (Or other areas of the solar system), and yeah, it's gonna be difficult, I'm pretty sure most people who would volunteer to go there would probably accept that fact.

This is true, but many people, especially on the left, contend that climate change is the Earth's natural response to anthropological behaviors. That is, now that we have done no action to combat it, it will only get worse in the only way that Earth knows how... naturally. Whether it was induced by humans or not. Colonization will inevitable happen at some point down the road because the earth and sun as we know it is bound to die.
People should be treated exactly the way I would want to be treated, had I been in their place.

Things to keep in mind:
(1) Things are much more complicated and endlessly interconnected than people think.
(2) Current politics, and the United States, are just here for the time being. Remember, the United State will not be here in 1,000 years. So treat each other well now, while you still have a chance to change things for the better.
(3) Unfortunately, religion is a load of crap. God does not exist. Policies must be made for humans here and now.

We like the Moon
'Cause it is close to us
We like the
MOON
But not as much as a spoon
'Cause that's more use for eating soup
And a fork isn't very useful for that unless it has got many vegetables
And then you might be better off with a chopstick
Unlike the moon
It is up in the sky
It's up there very high
But not as high as
maybe dirigibles
and zeppelins
and lightbulbs
and maybe clouds
And puffins also
I think maybe they go quite high too
Maybe not as high as the moon
'Cause the moon is very high
We like the moon
The moon is very useful, everyone
Everybody like the moon
Because it light up the sky at night
and it lovely and it makes the tides go
and we like it
But not as much as cheese
We really like cheese
We like zeppelins
We really like them
and we like kelp and we like moose
and we like deer and we like marmots
and we like all the fluffy animals
We really like the moon
"...I have been gravely disappointed with the white moderate. I have almost reached the regrettable conclusion that the Negro's great stumbling block in the stride toward freedom is not the White Citizen's Council-er or the Ku Klux Klanner, but the white moderate who is more devoted to "order" than to justice; who prefers a negative peace which is the absence of tension to a positive peace which is the presence of justice; who constantly says "I agree with you in the goal you seek, but I can't agree with your methods of direct action;" who paternalistically feels he can set the timetable for another man's freedom; who lives by the myth of time and who constantly advises the Negro to wait until a "more convenient season." -MLK Jr.

Why do people go and live in Antartica? For the science and the future of humanity etc.
Why do people sail alone around the world or on the Apollo missions? For the adventure, to test themselves etc.
Why do people live aboard a nuclear sub for years? To serve their nation.
Why did people cross the Atlantic and populate the Americas? To forge a new society and life for themselves or to gain riches and fame.
Why did the polynesians set sail into the unknown of the pacific? To find new lands and resources as their old way of life was threatened.


After the Apollo moon landings I thought we would have already had moonbases and started them on Mars. I can imagine the moon as being relatively easy to return from but Mars being a world of no return.

Could Mars be a new Botany Bay sending good natured lifers there with the opportunity to build a new life for themselves? That said though Botany Bay had people sent there for stealing a loaf of bread there.

Nope. We shall expand and invade other worlds. Aliens should be allowed to exist. However they must not be able to threaten humanity. So we shall invade their worlds and pressure them into an earth-based alliance while retaining internal autonomy.
