Because 95% of Mars atmosphere is carbon dioxide. And of course Mars and the Earth can't be compared on climate basis at all. Mars has been experiencing a large amount of dust storms the last few years, this in turns traps dust in the atmosphere, and thus warms it. (I thought this was a good bit of info before I had lunch with my brother the other day, he's a scientist at JPL, he was quick to tell me that the Mars argument was bunk.)
