neohasid.org was launched on the 10th anniversary of the first Chasidic egalitarian minyan, founded by Rabbi David Seidenberg in NYC in 1995, to help people integrate Chasidic customs, learning, and nusach into new contexts. Over time neohasid has added eco-Torah and earth-centered liturgy to its mission, and neohasid.org is now a member of the Green Hevra. neohasid.org is dedicated to the memory of Maidi Katz, who was a devoted participant in that minyan.
Kabbalah and Ecology: God's Image in the More-Than-Human World is a radically new vision of Judaism deeply anchored in the most traditional sources.

It has been called "exhilarating" (Bill McKibben), "crucial and irreplaceable" (Rabbi Jill Hammer), "a tour-de-force" (Rabbi Yitz Greenberg and Mary Evelyn Tucker), and "one of the boldest, most imaginative and theologically significant works to appear in recent memory" (Rabbi Nehemia Polen); it "jumps off the page with relevance" (Jeremy Benstein).
