Can tidal energy cause a flood?
There is a fundamental difference between tides and tidal energy. Tides are the rising and lowering of sea level and this is probably what you are referring to. Yes, it is possible for the rising water to cause floods in lower lying lands. One good example would be the Netherlands aka Holland. Their land level is below/slightly above sea level, so any rise in sea level threatens their livelihood. That is why they have dykes that prevent sea water from entering the land. Tidal energy on the other hand utilises the rising and lowering of water level to run turbines and generators to produce electrical energy.

How is rising sea level affecting the polar bears?
The rising sea levels are not affecting the polar bears, The cause of the sea level's rise is effecting them. The sea levels are rising because the ice in Arctic regions is melting. This changes where seals can rest and breed which reduces the ease of the polar bears finding food. The lack of ice also presents difficulties when they want to rest from swimming and when they want to travel quickly over the frozen sea.The climate change thus reduces their food and their energy expenditure. This leads to starvation and death
