Energy Capital Sequence:
"In photosynthesis we find the production of very beautiful, orderly molecular structures-- and orderly molecular structures are exactly the opposite of increasing disorder.
"So, we find all the biologicals are antientropic. In fact, we’ve found that our Earth itself seems to be antientropic: it impounds and puts energy together and the energy being collected, both as energy and as matter, as the dust, and energy as radiation-- both kinds of energy are being impounded.
“We find that the vegetation gradually dies and the leaves fall, and there is dust and winds, and it gradually gets buried. It gets buried deeper and deeper and the three-quarters of it inthe water gets buried very very deeply. We’ve found that by the 4,000 foot depth, where the pressures are really very great, it gets to be such a pressure that it gradually turns into petroleum, at just about 4,500 feet of depth, and suddenly we have great salt domes, and petroleum and great fossil fuels. We find our energies then being concentrated and concentrated in the most beautiful orderly”
