All life is basically refining energy - standing up to entropy and temporarily winning the fight.

[HPsquared]

It's all about putting the entropy somewhere else and keeping your own little area organised.

People of the earth, remember: unnecessary arm and leg movements increase the entropy! Fear of the heat death of the universe! Lie down when possible!

[antihipocrat]

Yes, in a very local context it appears so, but net entropy across the system from life's activities is increased
