Everyone is thinking of ways to create power or bring it in from outer space. All energy will eventually dissipate as heat, thus furthering global warming. If we can get rid of the excess CO2, then think of ways to convert energy already on Earth to energy we can use, then we will have nothing to worry about. The solar panels in space will only further global warming, while solar panels on Earth will take some of the energy coming to Earth anyway and direct it to our power needs before ending up as heat. It just takes a couple more steps. Nuclear power is also not the answer. That will also just create excess heat normally locked in mass. If we grew an amount of hairy plants with reflective power equal to the energy created by nukes or solar panels in space, then we cancel the energy gained, and maintain thermal equilibrium on Earth.
