[Crazy] Venus and Planetary-scale engines?

Well. Even if you want to capture some of it for Mars - 90-odd percent of it will still be waste CO2.

In truth, you don't even have to accelerate the planet to make it tolereable. Just flare the gas off and siphon enough off to stabilise the flare tower against the planet's spin, while supporting the solar arrays necessary to power the flares. Build them at the poles so they're always in sun, maybe? That's probably that *bit* less energy intensive. Along with the control comet-parking that seems to be happening on Mars to add the hydrogen.

It's a bit of a drunken idea.

I never really got how the broadleaf process on the wiki was supposed to work.
Oh sweet meteor of death
Fall upon us.
Deliver us in fire
To Peace everlasting.
