In this not-quite-serious video I explain what it would take to terraform Mars and make it habitable for humans.

Correction: At 1 minute 44 second it's the mass that is a tenth that of Earth, not the gravitational pull, which is about 0.4 times that of Earth. The text shows the right numbers. Sorry about that.
