Tech entrepreneur Elon Musk, who has stressed the importance of space colonisation and establishing a permanent presence on Mars, has apparently been trolled ahead of the annual Earth Day, which is observed globally on 22 April.

According to the Independent, a large billboard emblazoned with the message “Mars sucks” has been installed right outside the SpaceX campus Hawthorne in California.

The billboard was reportedly put up by a creative agency called Activista, which tweeted that the way humans treat Earth also “sucks.”

​This stunt has elicited a somewhat mixed reaction online; while some seemed amused by it, others have criticised the initiative and pointed to the importance of space exploration.
