Entropy law and global eco-energy problem

Abstract

The demand for energy is gradually increasing. At present, this demand is mainly met by fossil fuels such as oil, gas, coal. However, according to the second law of thermodynamics, the process of converting thermal energy into mechanical energy is accompanied by an increase in entropy, and accordingly, by emissions into the environment in the form of heat and material waste. All environmental problems are ultimately the challenging manifestation of the accelerated growth of Entropy.

The article deals with global eco-energy problems related to the critical growth of anthropogenic impact on nature in the context of the law of entropy.
