Your survey will be confused by people who know what entropy is, and thus aren't sure how to react because your statement will be literally true. Also, people may be distracted by the fact our planet isn't a closed system.

If you do it, also try making the reverse statement to a different group of people. You might find the majority of people nod, in both cases: people often make an effort to be agreeable.
