      I'm missing some understanding. Energy flow in biology thesis seems opposite of 3rd thermo law? Order =/= entropy

      Third law relates to AbsZero. Perhaps you mean the 2nd law, easily “violated” with sources of energy, like the Sun.

          2nd law! Yes, mistype. Entropy in systems always ⬆️ right? So how does order happen without outside force?

          order in biological systems is achieved by making their surroundings even more disordered

          I understand your answer in a shallow level. Would like to understand "why". That's my question. Depth. @neiltyson @D_L_Wolfe
