Why assume Earth would loose its atmosphere? I don't think it would - at least not quickly. Venus has no magnetic field, more solar wind, and less mass. All that, and more atmosphere than it knows what to do with.
This makes me think, could we more easily terraform Venus by stripping away its atmosphere than terraforming mars?
