There is a school of thought that wants humans to consume all of Earth's resources as this is the only way we will invest in star ships properly when we have to find somewhere else to live in the universe.
That is a fairly dumb school, TBH. We are a long, long way from the ability to live on Venus or Mars, and travel to another Solar System is beyond all but our imaginations.You're right... anywhere else is beyond all but our imagination.
Within our system Mars is possible but only if they can make use of the polar regions but there's not really a lot there. Long term I would have thought Jupiter, it's moons and the belt would be more likely targets but again, it's a big old step.
Of course all this is completly irrelevant in light of the Professors miniture Dyson Sphere which with the associated MS Paint diagram is simply an amazing context.
