The Fundamental Laws of the Universe
As we move into the role of custodians of planet Earth, our ethics must be informed by the fundamental laws of the universe that have guided life's evolution across the ages.

The actions we take that control energy flows to survive and thrive reduce entropy locally, while contributing to an overall increase in the entropy of the universe.
