Entropy is a thermodynamic property that measures the degree of randomness or disorder in a system
It is denoted by the symbol 'S' and has units of joules per kelvin
Entropy always increases in a closed system, as energy is dispersed and becomes less available to do work
Earth's entropy changes due to natural processes like weathering, erosion, and biological activity
Human activities like deforestation and burning of fossil fuels also contribute to changes in Earth's entropy
