I am not that keen negative entropy. If you think about the individual molecules that make an organism, the issue of apparent negative entropy may disappear. Each protein, for example, adopts a very highly organized and predictable structure, apparently defying the requirement for entropy to increase. But no protein exists in a vacuum, it is not a closed system. It interacts with the surrounding solvent, and therefore it is possible that as the protein folds the solvation shells rearrange, resulting in an increased entropy in the water surrounding the protein. Taken together, protein and its solvation shell, there may in principle still be an increase in entropy (?). The apparent decrease in entropy of the folded protein is paid for by the increase in entropy of its microenvironment. The decreased entropy of a living organism is local and offset by the increased entropy of its environment. There is no negative entropy.
Also, everything dies, and so the decrease in entropy achieved locally during life is ultimately revoked at death.
