Fact is, building an automated factory that simply dumps out CFCs into the atmosphere, produced from common minerals in Martial regolith, would warm the atmosphere by a few degrees, over 30 years, enough to trigger the outgassing of enough CO2 to create an atmospheric pressure exceeding 300 millibars, about the air pressure between Lhasa, TIbet and Mt Everest. Pure CO2 of course, so you need an O2 mask, but no pressure suit would be needed. Then you introduce plants to convert CO2 to O2. You will have a temperate climate over 75% of the planet within 30 years.

Of course, I’ve suggested a more long range space elevator plan on Europa to elevate water from beneath the ice cap to space, and propel water droplets to Mars for terraforming: assuming no valued life form on Europa harmed.

Otherwise, wondering just how much proof there is that there is not much more water on Mars below the surface.

Elon Musk is going to Mars and we will soon find out just what is possible on Mars.
