More to the point, the second law of thermodynamics only applies to closed systems. The Earth is not a closed system — it receives massive amounts of energy every day from a star approximately 1 Astronomical Unit away.

The Earth is not a closed system — it receives massive amounts of energy every day from a star approximately 1 Astronomical Unit away. Simply dumping large amounts of uncontrolled energy in a system does not automatically result in order.
For order to occur, work must be done. What's the source or work?
