Hints:
The Earth's energy does not come from eating a balanced diet,
or from ninja turtles, or from getting sleep and exercise.
There are no hamsters running on a treadmill inside the Earth.
God didn't wind up a big spring to operate the Earth.

The Sun provides, and has always provided, almost all of the energy
used on Earth. It was the energy that got stored in dead dinosaurs
to make gas and oil, and it's the energy that makes plants grow, and
gets stored in them so we can get the energy by eating the plants.
