I don't want to sound flippant, but I feel like that's pretty far down the ol' crisis ladder right now.

It might be our only way out. Send Musk and the Magats there. Toxic sand can only help.

If we were realistic about going to Mars, we'd start with serious plans to build an oceanic base on Earth first. Traveling to Mars is a small hurdle, in comparison to actually living there. We'd learn a lot if we built a self-sustaining base in the deep ocean.
