What if Olympus Mons is an active volcano erupting every 100 milion years or so. The interior could be heating again getting ready to release some pressure. Of course this is only my opinion on the matter with the material I have read. The volcanic process could take millions of years to manifest on Mars. Added the solar activity and you could have a double whammy for a Mars global warming scenario.

I think mars was once a planet like earth, with civilisation that came under attack by civilisations from other planets, this is what lead to it being totally uninhabitable, hence the thousands of craters, probably impact craters from weapons, some humans escaped to what we now call Earth and started re-colonisation, this is also around the same time when religions got created such as the bible to give people strength and hope to carry on, this is why you see shapes of UFO's in ancient egyption drawings because these were some of the first people to inhabit earth, our existance and history is shrouded in mystery.
Unfortunately though a lot of people are very close minded and are unable to think outside the box, and can only resort to that fact we were created and not that we came from other places, i understand this is hard for people to understand... but like an old quote says...
Imagination is more important than knowledge...

I'm normally not one to make doomsday predictions. But this sounds like a fake explanation to depopulate the planet and get away with it in the history books.

Mars simply does not have the required mass to sustain an electromagnetic field for solar protection, meaning it is largely a solid rock like the moon and Mercury with too little molten magma around a solid iron core to create an electromagnetic field and internal tectonics, thus Mars quickly lost all of any water or atmosphere to space shortly after its heat from accretion and ancient collisions ceased. Its polar ice caps are CO2 mostly, ice that condenses out of the (thin) atmosphere as temperatures fall to 148 K, the frost point of CO2.
