We probably won’t solve climate change. We might be able to make huge air conditioned complexes with just a single basic bed for everybody with insect farms underground for us to eat?

There are some ideas to terraform the Earth to keep it habitable. It’s just very expensive and challenging and if we screw it up, we’ll be worse off than when we started. We likely won’t get a 2nd chance and as a species we don’t typically nail it on the 1st try.

No one knows what happens in the future. We can make assumptions and calculation based on statistics and probability. But ultimately we don’t know.
