Fossil fuels are a cheap way to make electricity, but burning them generates greenhouse gases. Nuclear power produces a lot of low-carbon energy, but nuclear accidents may release dangerous radioactivity. Windmills generate electricity from the movement of air currents, but the wind doesn't always blow. In light of all these "down sides" to energy production, consider how you might harness longshore currents to produce electricity. Describe your plan in detail, and sketch out how it would work. What might be some of the potential drawbacks to your plan?
