E7 · E6 · E12 · E11 · 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: drought health crisis. Its words also reach E6 organisms, E12 states, E11 organizations and E10 institutions.

Here it is a dynamic between ecosystems, organisms and states: drought-hit (E7 ecosystems), with starvation and suspected hemorrhagic fever (E6 organisms), and food insecurity and President Kiir (E12 states).
