To maintain the population level at the current consumption levels - you need a certain level of input energy to do it. Without fossilized hydrocarbons or a serious investment in nuclear (and that's a pollution nightmare for hundreds of generations) we are fucked.
You are a moron if you think rooftop solar and a few windmills is going to do the job.
You simply do not understand the scale of the problem - so you just assume somebody will find "the answer".
