one long-term problem of tidal energy extraction is that it will slow down Earth's rotation because this is where the energy is ultimately extracted from! A similar but smaller effect, that modern wind energy extraction would have, too! An amazing new scientific result about Earth's rotation is described here: ruclips.net/video/SPutgPjdb8g/видео.html Day On Earth Was 19 Hours Long For a Billion Years and The Reason is Very Surprising The wind energy extraction in Germany is already at a maximum limit, I think. And more wind turbines couldn't generate more electricity in Summa. These would just change and alter the weather (cyclones) more and more. (The same may be valid for California) In the mid-latitudes Northern Hemisphere, we used to have prevailing Westerly Winds (Coriolis effect) but now, after 2 decades of wind turbine build-up, the winds come from North or South, more often. Nobody but me seems to recognize this!

Many natural changes are taking place due human facility development, but need of searching new energy sources.
Good observation leads to innovation👍.
