Judgement call.
Depends on how you view the universe and where your wizard draws his power from.
Does his power come from local magic? Ie: the more magical energy in an area, the more spells he can cast? Or does his power come from a link to the magical "ether", the plane of magic, or some other kind of trans-dimensional link to a power source?
The first case requires a secondary clause: how does magic exist within the universe? Are all planets equally linked to the magical plane, and their inhabitants are simply more, or less capable of utilizing it? Or do some planets/planes exist nearer or further from a magical "core"? At this point it's up to you to determine which one our Earth is. Are we magical, but inept? Or are we non-magical?
If we are magical and inept, your wizard draws magic as he normally would.
If we are not magical, your wizard has no power to draw from.
--To this end, you may scale down his spell slots, ie: Our Earth is not devoid of magic, but so dry, nothing higher than a 1st level spell can be cast
If you wizard possesses a trans-dimensional link to the forces that empower him (or said forces are internal), then he draws magic as usual.
