The sun - a small red giant situated somewhere in the Milky Way. A desolate corner of the universe by all measures except one - one of the planets orbiting it is populated by some evolved apes who have observed, measured, and studied every aspect of the universe that it understands.
Millions of nuclear fissions and fusions take place inside the sun. Our star produces more energy every second than humanity has utilized in our collective history. Nearly 173,000 terawatts of energy from the sun hits the earth every second. The sun is literally a giant stove heating up our earth but years of solar irradiation did not cause the earth to heat up as much as a few years of fossil fuel has. Why is that?
The wind carrying apupan thaadis, the blooming of flowers, the flutter of butterflies, the pitter-patter of birds, the roar of lions, and the trumpeting of elephants all need energy. Life on Earth collects the energy of the sun and converts it into different forms. Human beings thought it wise to conquer nature and strip life off of Earth. Us humans have not even begun to fathom the role that nature has been playing and our puny brains cannot understand the depth of the issues that we are causing in the universe.
Energy can neither be created nor be destroyed it can only change from one form to another - Ămilie du Châtelet proposed and proved this theory. It is one of the universe's fundamental laws that we have understood. The valuation(price) of every object can be determined by the energy poured into it. There are many kinds of energy - the energy of the mass it contains, the energy needed to shape it a certain way, the energy needed to transport it to a particular place and so on.
Economics - the way we currently determine the value of something, utlizes a valuation unit that is not relevant to the universe or the natural world - money. A The principle known as the demand-supply model goes-  the unit price for a particular good, or other traded item such as labor or liquid financial assets, will vary until it settles at a point where the quantity demanded (at the current price) will equal the quantity supplied (at the current price), resulting in an economic equilibrium.
A star at the end of its term slowly burning out of fuel is tending toward equilibrium, an ecosystem is in equilibrium when it is almost extinct, death is a way for a body to head towards equilibrium. The fundamental value of the most important system followed by humanity is based on equilibrium - we are pursuing a status quo, a utopia that never changes. We are courting death.
But it doesn't have to be that way. We can change the value system. We can rethink. We can reprogram the systems. To value something based on energy. The value of work - the energy spent on that task as well as the energy spent acquiring skills. The valuation of every object based on the energy that goes into it. Let us account for energy - let us visualize a better way to value things based on the actual value based on the laws of the universe rather than an arbitrary unit created by human imagination. Let us move to an Energy Economy.
