Nearly all the food energy on earth comes from the sun starting with photosynthesis. In the ocean depths, and other environs in which light does not penetrate, organisms depend ultimately on chemosynthesis for food energy, which fixes carbon without the initial need for sunlight.

Where does all energy come form?

All energy on Earth ultimately comes from the sun. Solar energy is converted into different forms of energy such as heat, light, and chemical energy through processes like photosynthesis, which then power various biological and physical processes on the planet.


Where does ALL energy initially come from?

All energy on Earth ultimately comes from the sun. The sun's energy is captured by plants during photosynthesis and then transferred through the food chain to other organisms. Additionally, energy sources such as fossil fuels and wind power also have their origins in the sun.

Where does most of the energy in earths atmospheres and oceans and living systems come from?

Most of the energy in Earth's atmosphere, oceans, and living systems comes from the Sun. Sunlight is absorbed by the Earth's surface and is then transformed into various forms of energy that drive atmospheric processes, ocean currents, and support photosynthesis in living organisms. This energy is vital for sustaining life on Earth.


Where does all of energy on earth originally come from?

The primary source of energy on Earth is the sun. Solar energy powers various processes on Earth, including photosynthesis in plants, which in turn sustains all forms of life on the planet. Additionally, other sources of energy on Earth, such as geothermal energy and fossil fuels, are derived from the sun's energy in one way or another.

Can all of the earths energy find its way out of earths atmosphere?

No. Most of Earth's stored energy is within matter and it will not "find its way out of earths atmosphere" on it's own. The only energy that leaves Earth is radiant energy (some heat, light, radio energy, etc) or matter that is thrown out of the atmosphere by cosmic collisions. Some particles and element (e.g. hydrogen) may also be lost to space as Earth orbits our sun.
