When you feel you can stick to the subject you proposed in your OP, let me know.
Did you actually think that Stripe was looking for an answer in this thread? How could he be when he already knows the answer?
Since energy is the capacity to do work and work is a force over a distance, yes, you can have a force (mass times acceleration) without energy. The application of force would be a general way of saying "work". So in other words, you asked, rhetorically in an attempt to be a smart-alec, "so then work can be done without energy? Ok.". But, of course, that has nothing to do with my comment to Stipe that you so clumsily barged in on. However, even if it were true that you couldn't have a force without first having the capacity to do work, that's not the same as implying that they are the same general thing.
Congrats. You get the prize for most idiotic comment of the day.

Ah, Watson. I don't think I've ever seen so much knowledge used to say absolutely nothing in my whole life. Is this good for the income or something?

Likewise, I've never before seen someone attempt to pass off nothing as knowledge with as much effort that you exert. I would suggest actually attempting to acquire some of the latter mentioned rather than all the pretending. It might actually be less effort in the end and you might find it somewhat useful.

What should I do in order to acquire this knowledge? Should I study and obtain a university degree in earth science? Should I work with students and professors to produce scholarly articles and to process data? Should I read technical journals? Should I discuss my ideas with informed people?
Would that be enough or is there something else I should think about doing?

I don't think that degree has done much good for you. You previously demonstrated to me that your understanding of many things you should be familiar with, if you really do have such a degree, is abysmal (and not just lacking).

Oh, you're published? Please link me to one of your peer reviewed articles.

What's the point if the exercise of either of these is just in your own personal incredulity?
