<p>The Greenlink Group was founded in 2015 as the result of Cox winning $10,000 in a poster competition at the 2014 Clean Energy Education &amp; Empowerment Awards. It has since been involved in numerous other projects across the Southeast. Now, it is helping lead the city of Atlanta&rsquo;s ambitious effort to convert to 100% clean energy for municipal operations by 2025, and for all energy users by 2035</p>

         say? There are more problems than there's time to solve.  -->
