The laws of conservation and mass

The whole universe and everthing from the planet earth to the insignificant atom Is based on this law. Nothing can be gained without giving something first. The law doesn't have to be exact. But as long as something is given something can be gained. Nothing can be of equel value to something else. The exchange for something may be more, less, or in rare cases, the same. But what is the value of time, effort, and energy? If you want rust (why would you?) you can take a piece of iron and leave it out in the exposed air for a long period of time. Or if you want it faster just dunk the iron in seawater. This balence of giving and receiving is what keeps our universe intact. Otherwise we'd eventually run out of matter or have a bunch more. You have 1 piece of wood, you chop that piece of wood into two pieces. Now you have two and the single large piece of wood is now gone. If you could somehow keep that single piece of wood and still gain the two pieces then you have ignored the law of conservation and mass. There is also "the law of conservation of energy" you cannot gain more energy then you put into it. A tornado has more kinetic evergy then 100 million tons of conventional explosives but you don't see craters popping up all over the place. We put the energy and effort into harnessing the atom by extracting plutonium/uranium or other heavy elements. We fuse 2 atoms or split 1 and we get energy that if we can harness will solve all of our problems. If we can harness... humanity and everything else cannot gain anything without giving something in return. I know this sounds like Fullmetal alchemist but it is true. It is also true on things we don't want. In exchange for sending up carbon into the atmosphere we choke on carbon dioxide emmisions and the possiblities of a new ice age. We take the time and effort to create cures and in the process we may get sick. Some scientists are now thinking that matter can be created throught the slowing down of light. Even then we cannot ignore this law, because you in exchange for light gain matter... this law of exchange balences our universe. This law of exchange is applied to everything and anything. And when it is ignored the truth will be gained...
