A conversation, open to anyone who wants a good earth and wonders how we get there.

What is
K4M2A?

K4M2Anoun

  1. A conversation among people who want a good earth, working out together how to actually live it.
  2. A name with no fixed meaning yet. What it comes to mean will be whatever its people show by how they live.
The name is empty on purpose

The name K4M2A has no fixed meaning. That is a choice, not something we forgot. To define a thing is to draw a line around it, and we did not want to draw that line alone.

What K4M2A turns out to mean will be whatever its people show by how they live.

Many of us can say clearly what we want for the earth. Ask us how, and the room goes quiet. This is where we write our way through that quiet.

Said plainly

Four things everyone
is asking for

When people describe the planet they want, it usually comes down to the same four things.

One thing we are sure of

Nobody gets
there alone.

Understanding gets tested in relationships. Fairness only means something between people. Prosperity shows up in a household, not a spreadsheet.

A good system for the planet starts as a good system for a family, then for a village, and grows from there.

That is the how we want to talk about. Not a campaign and not a product. People who want the same thing, working it out together and actually living it.

Who this is for

Is this conversation for you?

“Every philosophy that asks for verification should welcome the person who brings a counterexample.”

K4M2A

It is, if

  • You have decided you want a good earth, and you mean it as more than a slogan.
  • You can describe the planet you want, even if you can't yet see the road to it.
  • You suspect apps, organisations and ideas can help, but can't do it on their own.
  • You are willing to think out loud, and to change your mind on the record.

It may not be the right fit yet, if

  • You are mainly here to sell or promote something.
  • You would rather win an argument than work one out.
  • You'd like the answers settled before the conversation starts. (We don't have them yet either.)

No background needed. Students, farmers, engineers, parents, teachers, people who have retired. Anyone, from anywhere.

Who writes here

No one person.

What you read on this site isn’t signed, because it isn’t one person’s view. It is understanding we are working out together, in conversations, on the podcast and in the replies we receive.

Each of us came here to understand one thing properly, and none of us claims to have finished. So we describe ourselves simply: “I am not enlightened.” And we greet each other with “Life is awesome. How is it for you today?” These are two habits we keep, and they are the spirit of everything here.
