String theory vacua
String theory - which predicts an astronomical number of spacetime bubbles (vacua) - accounts for the existence of at least some with conditions favorable to life - including a low entropy beginning. Note link to related proposal from Mersini-Houghton that removes the need for anthropic selection.
