"irrigating the interior?"
This is a terrible idea. World population is well above sustainable levels as it is; steps should be made to slow population growth not ruin ecosystems with some view to fit more people in. Scientists are even now considering the option of changing the atmosphere of Mars in order to colonise it, since, and this is some people's view, the world is not savable, and this surely is unethical and not helpful to solving the problem of overpopulation. Why do these countries have asylum seekers? Many because they are severly overcrowded and can't sustain their population as well as having oppressive governments.
