You'll be dumping a lot of toxins into the environment, but you can do it. About 1% of the population live in areas where you can use wind power on some days. For the vast majority, the two choices are fossil fuels and the clean, efficient, but slightly scary nuclear choice.

a)solar power is not very expensive, you can rig a house to run on solar for 25k.
b)the manufacturing of solar panels produces far less harmful waste per output than fossil fuel production.
c)you can use solar power in any area where there is sun, which i believe would be most of the planet, even if in some areas on a limited basis.
