The Earth returns all the energy it receives from the Sun. Yet life remains orderly there. To establish order, you have to produce even more disorder The solar energy arriving at Earth is roughly equal to the energy leaving for space. So if energy isn't changing, what does it give to Earth? The answer lies in the quality of the energy. For every visible light photon coming from the Sun, Earth sends back about 20 infrared photons. The same energy, but twenty times more dispersed Physicists read this difference as the thing life pockets. Erwin Schrödinger said in 1944 that organisms feed on negative entropy from their environment. In other words, you take in orderly energy and release disordered energy. According to a calculation described in an astronomy article, the entire evolution of 4 billion years of life can be paid for with just a few months' worth of Earth's entropy budget Life is one of the most orderly structures in the universe. But it's also a machine that accelerates the universe's total disorder. The more orderly you are, the more heat and waste you produce. It's said that even a resting adult gives off as much heat as a 100-watt light bulb The way to keep order inside is to be able to expel disorder outside. Systems that can't release waste collapse from within For the mind, the scientific equivalent of this isn't definitive, but as a metaphor, it's intuitive. The brain is two percent of body weight but burns roughly one-fifth of the energy at rest. Burnout studies show that when incoming energy is less than outgoing energy for a long time, the system can't maintain its order. In studies James Pennebaker conducted in the 1980s, students who wrote about traumatic experiences for a few days went to the health center less in the following months. Later reviews say the effect is small but consistent. In other words, releasing emotional waste might actually do some good Life stays orderly by exporting disorder
