- They don't think much about it.
- Tidal power is only suitable at selected locations round the world.
- The community is more likely to think about renewable energy in general and think that it is good.
- The community knows that we have to reduce our reliance on fossil fuels (coal, oil and natural gas), because the burning of them is causing global warming.

Can you use tidal power in everyday life?
Tidal power produces electricity, the same electricity that you use in everyday life. Some countries are planning systems that will use the tides as a source of renewable energy. That is an extremely good idea.
What type of resources can tidal energy be put?
Tidal power, also called tidal energy, is a form of hydropower that converts the energy of tides into useful forms of power, mainly electricity. Tidal energy is a renewable energy source.
Why would tidal energy be good in West Michigan?
West Michigan borders Lake Superior, and Lake Superior is so big, it's almost a small sea. Lake Superior has big tides, so tidal power plants in Lake Superior would be a good source of energy.
Tidal power how the energy source is turned into usable energy?
Large underwater turbines are placed in areas where tidal forces are high. Here they capture the energy produced by tidal motions to turn generators and produce electricity.

Who Uses Tidal Energy?
anyone who is using electricity. meaning stores, people, buildings, ect. afterall, tidal power is a source of electricity ran by spinning turbines underwater.
What are the positive affects tidal energy do for the environment?
tidal energy is good because it is a renewable source that doesn't pollute the environment. It is often used to make electricity.
Does tidal power have any accidents?
what accidents may occur with tidal power
Does Australia use tidal power?
