-Fluorine is likely to be needed in massive quantities if people decide to terraform Mars.  Most of the [[Super Greenhouse Gases]] which would have long lifetimes (when bombarded with ultraviolet light) are fluorine compounds.  For example CF4, C2F6, SF6, NF3, CF3Cl, and others.  Adding [[Super Greenhouse Gases]] to the atmosphere is an ideal way to warm the planet.
