Therefore, the deep impression which classical thermodynamics made on me. It is the only physical theory of universal content which I am convinced, that within the framework of applicability of its basic concepts, will never be overthrown.” 27Three kinds of thermodynamic systems, open, partially open and isolated. Earth is finite in material but not energy. 28, 29 Soddy on the laws of thermodynamics controlling “ in the last resort, the rise of political systems, the freedom or bondage of nations, the movements of commerce and industry, the origin of wealth and poverty, and the general physical welfare of the race” Soddy 29 Blum, “the small local decrease in entropy represented in the building of the oranisma is coupled with a much larger increase in the entropy of the universe” . Shrödinger, “By continually drawing from its environment negative entropy… what an organisma feeds upon is negative entropy; it continues to suck orderliness from its environment:” . 30 Bertrand Russell, “every living thing is a sort of imperialist, seeking to transfer as much as possible of its ienvoronment into itself and its seed”. 31. Miller on what takes to keep species alive. 31 MacCurdy and Leslie White on energy as a yardstick for civilization and cultural evolution, Odum on energy limits ultimately sets limits, 33 Odum, “All progress is due to special power subsidies, and progress evaporates whenever and wherever they are removed.
