Kim Stanley Robinson talks ecotastrophe
Posted by Cory Doctorow , July 3, 2007 5:51 AM permalink SF writer Kim Stanley Robinson is interviewed in today's Wired News. Stan is a science fiction writer whose work manages to personalize the ethics of environmentalism in such a way as to make you feel them in your marrow. His magnificent opus, the Red Mars trilogy , tells the story of the internecine struggles among Mars colonists over the right of Mars to exist in natural beauty versus the human imperative to terraform it. Pacific Edge , a quiet and humble book about an ecological utopia in Orange County, is so incandescently cheerful that I keep a copy around at all times to use as an anti-depressant. Stan has just published the concluding volume in a trilogy of novels about a global warming disaster. The books Forty Signs of Rain Fifty Degrees Below and Sixty Days and Counting tell the stories of the policy wonks, scientists and Beltway dealers who preside over the catastrophic collapse of the planet's ecosystem. No one writes scientist heroes like Stan. If you want to believe that science, truth, and knowledge can save us from drowning in our own cess, these books will give you hope.

Kim Stanley Robinson On Google and Climate Change
Posted January 6th, 2008 by Bibliofuture Kim Stanley Robinson, a science fiction author, gave a talk as part of the Google Tech Talk series on Google and climate change.

    Kim Stanley Robinson's Mars Trilogy
    by Tim O'Reilly
    February 2000
    I just finished reading these books (Red Mars, Green Mars, and Blue Mars) and can't recommend them too highly. Red Mars won the Nebula award in 1993, and Green Mars and Blue Mars each won the Hugo award (in 1994 and 1997), and all were richly deserved. I can't say I enjoyed these more than any other SF book I've read recently (Neal Stephenson's Cryptonomicon wins that award), but I found them perhaps among the most rewarding of all the science fiction books I've ever read. What is most remarkable about the books is the multiplex layeringideas, story lines, facts, visions of the future. A story of the terraforming of Mars, this book is also a love story for the geology and geography of a planet and the slow succession of ecological progression, a rich exploration of how people are changed by their environment as they in turn change it ("We are areoformed as we terraform Mars."), a wonderful, speculative exploration of the science and technology that might be applied not only to such a massive engineering project as the transformation of a planet, but also the kinds of recreational technologies such a culture might develop, and a thoughtful investigation of politics and cultural evolution as a group of very smart people are faced with the possibility of starting fresh.

LabLit .com recently caught up with Robinson to find out more.
When did you first develop an interest in science – were you ever tempted to become a scientist yourself?
I’ve always been a reader, and that included non-fiction that was often historical or scientific, starting with archaeology because of my historical interests, then moving to geology, astronomy, anthropology, etc. It never occurred to me to become a scientist, although after I became a science fiction writer I wished I had studied something like archaeology or anthropology, rather than English as I did, as I think it would have helped me in writing science fiction. But at the time I was in school I was very focused on history and literature.

He is widely considered to be among the finest science fiction writers working today, noted as much for the verisimilitude of his characters as the meticulously researched hard science basis of his work. He has won just about every major sf award there is to win and is the author of the massively successful and lavishly praised Mars series. Elsewhere in infinity plus Elsewhere on the www:

06-18-04: F. Paul Wilson Exclusive on Re-Writing Literary History Updating the Adversary Cycle
Don't leave the light on. I made a heart-stopping visit to the Borderlands Press website . Well, if not heart-stopping certainly wallet-emptying. When I just brought up the site, I was presented with an enticing new series they're running. Each book is small, short, and printed in a bright color with no DJ. The authors include John Maclay, Joe R. Lansdale, and more. I was totally distracted by books I suddenly wanted, and I hadn't even come close to reading about the books I knew I wanted and in some cases, already had.
I'd recently bought the first two volumes in their current series of F. Paul Wilson re-prints from Mark V. Ziesing
Like many writers, F. Paul Wilson's written universe is full of strange connections. He's got two series and they intersect in one critical and difficult to find novel. 'The Tomb' is available as a cheesy paperback and as a mind-bogglingly expensive limited edition. It advances the story that started in 'The Keep' and became part of 'The Adversary Cycle'. It's also the first Repairman Jack novel. So, if you want to introduce your friends to Repairman Jack, whose recent adventures ('

makes a point I made elsewhere , but much more clearly "It’s a failure of imagination to think that climate change is going to be an escape from jail – and it’s a failure in a couple of ways. For one thing, modern civilization, with six billion people on the planet, lives on the tip of a gigantic complex of prosthetic devices – and all those devices have to work. The crash scenario that people think of, in this case, as an escape to freedom would actually be so damaging that it wouldn’t be fun. It wouldn’t be an adventure. It would merely be a struggle for food and security, and a permanent high risk of being robbed, beaten, or killed; your ability to feel confident about your own – and your family’s and your children’s – safety would be gone. People who fail to realize that… I’d say their imaginations haven’t fully gotten into this scenario." The other half of this coin, of course, is that many of the things we need to do to avoid meltdown will also help us lead happier, more secure lives, both on

They are led through a beautiful landscape, hot air ballooning or taking some other form of transport out of the entire Jules Verne repertoire
They will be marginally-to- comfortably middle class, still in their twenties or thirties, with some disposable income, urban/ suburban Americans but with a love of snowboarding or parasailing, and local athletic club workouts. While waiting in an airport for a flight to a meeting, they will see a book about Everest; they will buy it and read it and think, How interesting . Ads in The New Yorker will remind them that they too could join an adventure tour, and make their next vacation a trip to some place as exotic and wild as Everest. Adventure travel: just a matter of some vacation time, some disposable income, and a phone call! They call or e-mail their travel agent and are put in touch with an adventure tour company, whose agent invites them to join one of their adventure tours, in a group with about a dozen other clients. They pick one and go to REI and buy lots of stuff, and fly to another continent, usually one starting with an A, and they join the other members of the group in a remote and exotic country. They are led by Western guides through a beautiful landscape, walking and perhaps also riding, gliding, kayaking, parasailing, hot-air ballooning, or taking some other form of transport out of the entire Jules Verne repertoire of maneuvers over the land, in devices the tour company provides.

Geoff has posted a fabulous interview Utopias conference All that, and a Ballard reference, too: BLDGBLOG: I’m interested in the possibility that literary genres might have to be redefined in light of climate change. In other words, a novel where two feet of snow falls on Los Angeles, or sand dunes creep through the suburbs of Rome, would be considered a work of science fiction, even surrealism, today; but that same book, in fifty years’ time, could very well be a work of climate realism, so to speak. So if climate change is making the world surreal, then what it means to write a “realistic” novel will have to change. As a science fiction novelist, does that affect how you approach your work? Kim Stanley Robinson: Well, I’ve been saying this for a number of years: that now we’re all living in a science fiction novel together, a book that we co-write. A lot of what we’re experiencing now is unsurprising because we’ve been prepped for it by science fiction. But I don’t think surrealism is the right way to put it. Surrealism is so often a matter of dreamscapes, of things becoming more than real – and, as a result, more sublime. You think, maybe, of J.G. Ballard’s The Drowned World, and the way that he sees these giant catastrophes as a release from our current social set-up: catastrophe and disaster are aestheticized and looked at as a miraculous salvation from our present reality. But it wouldn’t really be like that.

Many people don't know that one of my first books was a study of the work of science-fiction writer Frank Herbert (now out of print but available in digital form on this site), or that I edited a collection of his essays (also out of print). I still read a lot of science-fiction, and in the distant past wrote quite a bit about it. A Question of Preference . March 2002. An Ask Tim column responding to a reader's question about whether I preferred Paul (in Dune and Dune Messiah ) or Leto (in Children of Dune ) as a leader.

It's out of print now, but I decided to make it available online. A Review of Kim Stanley Robinson's Mars Trilogy . This is actually an email I wrote to friends and family in February 2000. When putting together this archive, I thought it was worth sharing more widely. "I found a lot of food for thought regarding the idealism of the open source software communitythe belief of some characters that a new order beyond capitalist competition was possible, that the cooperative scientific and engineering endeavor of Mars as a giant laboratory and development for the good of mankind didn't have to fall back into the old ways of exploitation and unequal distribution of benefits. In many ways, the book is about a culture built on the best of the underlying dreams of science, where people are driven by the search for truth and possibility, not personal gain."

Kim Stanley Robinson
interviewed by
Duncan Lawie
"Science fiction is one of the most powerful tools of human thought we have" "..the story of terraforming Mars, which is a giant
template for doing these utopian things, simply has to be a long story." "I'm not very firm in my feelings about what is true. I think it's an advantage for a novelist." Kim Stanley Robinson turned 50 in March of this year. He began reading science fiction at the start of the 1970s, as the New Wave was breaking over the genre, and started writing it not long after. He established a reputation for literate science fiction, confirmed by the Orange County trilogy (aka: Three Californias) written during the 1980s. Nevertheless, he is best known for the epic Mars trilogy published over the period from the 1990s. His next two projects nestle in the shadow of that massive work -
