Chris Neidl
Activist
BIOChris Neidl is the advocacy and outreach coordinator for Solar One, a green energy, arts and education center based in New York City. Originally from Albany, NY and educated in Vancouver, B.C., Chris has been active in renewable energy advocacy since 2004. During that time Chris has been experimenting with innovative uses of arts and cultural programming in the domain of issue organizing. He is particularly interested in the potential of NYC's fertile cultural scene to generate new messages that will help re-identify the project of sustainability within an urban context. Chris is a founding organizer of New York City's solar-powered music, arts and advocacy festival, Citysol and was a coorganizer of Sea of People, the largest local event during the national Step It Up day of climate action in April 2007. Chris is currently pursuing his MA at NYU's Gallatin School of Individualized Studies, and lives in Brooklyn with his wife Reena. |
