Addressed in Ray Bradbury's novel The Martian Chronicles (1950).

In Bradbury's story, the vast majority of residents of the Martian colonies returned back to Earth when (atomic) war was imminent, leaving Mars all but deserted, and the Earth destroyed.

I found this hard to believe, but this set up a really cool ending.
