Terraforming Mars essentially means pumping more energy and gases into its climate system via whetever method, while the problem here on Earth is that we've pumped too much energy into the climate system and we'd have to somehow get it "out" again.

So because one problem is too much X, and the other problem is too little X, those are distinct problems that don’t inform one another?
