Pretend the coastal town of
Galveston, TX has decided to
Install new wave generators on
all its beaches to create energy
for the entire island. What
disadvantages might arise?

Explanation:

Wave generators harness the power of breaking waves which are disturbances that transmits energy to produce electric power for homes and industries.

This energy source is choice by many because it is environmentally friendly.

Here are some of the disadvantages;

 Threats to marine ecosystem especially those organisms that resides on the continental shelf where most these generators are installed. It can pose serious damage to the beach natural outlook as energy waves can be periodically discharged. Disruption of ships and vessels that might dock near the beach. Noise pollution generated by the plant is undesirable. The seasonality of waves might cause fluctuations in power generation.  

I'm soooo sorry but i can't answer but you can ask another professor
