I said people who have a nagging concern about future generations but feel helpless to makes a difference, can drop the feeling with Mars being an option.

Ok - thats what the 2nd part of the answer was for.

If anything, right now some people probably think that, "we might destroy our planet but our children can always colonize mars as a backup".

That psychology all changes once Mars colonists become a thing of the present, because then it's no longer our children, it's their children, those damn martians who think they can have everything are so so proud of their first rain forest bubble domes, f'cking snobs. It's no longer our future, it's another part of humanity that's potentially doing better then your part.

They'd certainly be aware of their environment, being tiny and fragile. Not like having the whole wide world.
