It's early..this is still the most foolish thing I've seen today.

Again, you bring humorous entertainment to the thread today. You seem to think that because you can install some PV panels and a wind turbine in a densely populated area that it is an indication that it scales for urban areas.

BTW: I love tidal and geothermal energy (just as I love solar, wind, hydro, nuclear and fossil fuels).

However, there are very few areas that are geothermally viable in large population centers.

And if you want to talk environmental group objections, they really freak out with the tidal power plants. But I think it would be totally cool to dam up the san francisco bay and put in a bunch of hydro turbines that could take advantage of the high and low tide action going in and out of the bay. Think of how many coal plants you could shut down if we did that!!!

You missed the point.....very sloppy of you.
