If entropy is taken to mean the amount of "randomness," then you could fight it by organizing matter (e.g. clean up your room). But in time, everything tends towards disorder; entropy increases.
Temperature and energy are two of the variables included when graphing enthalpy and entropy. Enthalpy is made up of the energy, pressure, and volume of a system. Entropy is a way to determine the different ways energy can be arranged.
Energy ... in excess of entropy.
Entropy
The Second Law of Thermodynamics states that a system with no energy input and no losses will tend towards a zero energy state. This is essentially the entropy of any energy exchange. Thus, you require a constant input of energy to maintain any system.
They strive towards a lower energy state (entropy).
Wasted energy will increase the amount of useless, or unusable, energy, and reduce the amount of usable energy in the Universe. The wasted energy is related to entropy - one way to express the Second Law of Thermodynamics is to say that there are irreversible processes (in terms of energy), another is that "entropy increases". However, entropy is not energy; it is not measured in Joule, but in Joule/Kelvin. In any case, you might say that when energy is wasted, entropy increases.Wasted energy will increase the amount of useless, or unusable, energy, and reduce the amount of usable energy in the Universe.

There is always an increase in the entropy of the universe.
that is not a full questionif it was does entropy involve losing energy ever time, then yes
Entropy increases when ever energy is used up. Energy cannot be destroyed, but it is always lost in the form of unusable energy. Entropy is the % of unusable energy compared to usable energy in a given system.

Entropy.
In thermodynamics, entropy is a measure of the non-convertible energy (ie. energy not available to do work) inside a closed system. The concept of free energy involves tapping into an inexhaustible source of energy available to do work. Thus, in a system generating free energy, entropy would never increase, and the usable energy could be siphoned off forever. This illustrates, succinctly, why a free energy system can never exist.

To feed the rise in Entropy. Enthalpy is a constant, but Entropy is always increasing.
