The statements supported are:

- The usable energy in the universe is decreasing.

- The entropy of the universe is increasing.

The second law of Thermodynamics establishes that in each energy convertion, in an isolate system, a part of energy is converted into heat (unusable energy) and the entropy of the system increase.
