It still ain't gonna be a pleasant place to live though, you know. You've got to get some oxygen in there so that you can actually breathe, and the gravity is much lower than Earth's which presents a multitude of problems to long term habitation. Whether or not the intense, global dust storms would continue unabated after humans have mucked about with the atmosphere is open for discussion, but at the moment that's not a pleasant prospect either.

We're kinda going off-topic now though...

Yeah, they're called animals.

...or Oxygen or nitrogen?...

Not exactly, but some plants are very good at growing in nitrogen-poor soil and restoring the nitrogen.

Good for them, but there's already something out there that does it cheaper, and more efficiently, is readily available to all countries (rich and poor).


Spoiler:

LOL, right on.
