Why these floors —

E7 · E9 · E13 · E12 · E10

E14 places every story on a stack of fifteen floors, from the fields under everything to the planet acting as one. This one sits on E7, ecosystems; the pressure it names: biodiversity action. Its words also reach E9 cultures, E13 civilizations, E12 states and E10 institutions.

Here it is a dynamic between ecosystems, cultures and civilizations: biodiversity action (E7 ecosystems), with International Flute Festival, musicians and global (E9 cultures), and COP17 (E13 civilizations).
