Strictly Germ-Proof The Antiseptic Baby and the Prophylactic Pup Were playing in the garden when the Bunny gambolled up They looked upon the creature with a loathing undisguised It wasn't disinfected and it wasn't sterilised. They said it was microbic and a hotbed of disease They steamed it in a vapor of a thousand-odd degrees They froze it in a freezer that was cold as banished hope And washed it in permanganate with carbolated soap. In sulphurated hydrogen they steeped its wiggly ears They trimmed its frisky whiskers with a pair of hard-boiled shears They donned their rubber mittens and they took it by the hand And 'lected it a member of the Fumigated Band. There's not a micrococcus in the garden where they play They bathe in pure iodoform a dozen times a day And each imbibes his rations from a hygienic cup The Bunny and The Baby and The Prophylactic Pup.

In the martian case, fluid well above the boiling point (which is a very low temperature at Mars' low atmospheric pressure and air temperature) is suddenly exposed to the atmosphere.

I would not go to the extent of global desertification, because preventing rainfall in a particular region would leave the vapor in the air and that would eventually rain more elsewhere. So it is more likely that the increased pollution will cause more extreme weather, leading to more droughts in some places and more floods in others.
Of all the ingredients we employ in the creation of a garden, scent is probably the most potent and the least understood.
