Pangaea Reborn? How could we create a new pangea?

Inspired by this article on Big Think: Genius or Crazy? Pangaea Reborn, how could humanity create a new Pangaea out of our planet?

From what I remember of my earth science class, the amount of energy being spent on tectonic plate movement would be on the order of many times the amount of energy used by humanity every year to only move the continents by inches a year. To move them across an entire ocean would take millions of years worth of that amount of energy.
