Why these floors —

E3 · E7 · E6 · E9 · 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 E3, chemistry; the pressure it names: air pollution. Its words also reach E7 ecosystems, E6 organisms, E9 cultures, E12 states and E10 institutions.

Here it is a dynamic between chemistry, ecosystems and organisms: pollution hours (E3 chemistry), with air quality and hazardous levels (E7 ecosystems), and health warnings and residents (E6 organisms).
