Well, the answer is quite simple. By converting to wind energy, we are relying on something that we cannot fully control just yet, and that would be the wind and generally nature a whole. if there's no wind at any given time, then we don't have power. It's not so convenient as what we have now!
The idea is great for sailboats and remote places that need very small amounts of power. Large wind farms that you see all over the world provide very small amounts of power and covered mandated requirements for utility companies. They provide virtually no real power and fossil fuel plants run in the background and their CO2 output and fuel consumption are ignore because they are not fully engaged to the grid.
