We need to “seed” Mars with some kind of plant or Algiers that can exist in that climate and exhale oxygen to make it’s atmosphere livable. It may take a long time.

Thank you for your comments SSG Edward Tilton. The entire process of terraforming Mars has been very well thought out and the step you mentioned is one of those steps in the process... Yes, it will take time, but not as long as some people think... The Martian atmosphere is mostly Carbon Dioxide (CO2), so there are a number of processes to break the CO2 down into Carbon and Oxygen, of which the Oxygen can be used for breathing and as a fuel... There is also plenty of water Ice in MARS' craters and below the surface in addition to the water ice at the poles... The water ice can be processed into Hydrogen and Oxygen of which, both can be used for fuel and the Oxygen used for both breathing and Fuel...
Plant life would first be grown in habitats to produce, not only food, but oxygen for breathing... and that is another component of the terraforming process along with providing food for astronauts... It is all kind of exciting in my view...
