If it fails (and it likely would), then you just end up wasting resources that belong here and could be helping people here.
Anyhow, instiction is inescapable no matter what. You can't stop the process of evolution and eventually, we will be an instict ancestor species for whatever our decendents evolve into.

It's not like we'd be blowing our wad on this Mars thing. It'd probably use something like 0.00000000000000000000000000000000000000000000001% of our available manpower and wealth. As for the earth's resources, it'll use basically none.
