Benny Josef Peiser, born 1957, is a social anthropologist specialising in the environmental and socio-economic impact of physical activity on health. He was a senior lecturer in the School of Sport and Exercise Sciences at Liverpool John Moores University (LJMU) and is a visiting fellow at the University of Buckingham. Peiser established the Cambridge Conference Network in 1997. Peiser acknowledges that he is "not a climate scientist" and has "never claimed to be one." His interest as a social anthropologist, is in "how climate change is portrayed as a potential disaster and how we respond to that."〔 〕 As an outspoken climate change sceptic, Peiser became director of the newly established UK lobbying group Global Warming Policy Foundation in 2009. He serves as co-editor of the journal, ''Energy & Environment'' and is a regular contributor to Canada's ''National Post''.〔 〕〔The National Post, former media magnate Conrad Black's national flagship title was established to provide a voice for Canadian conservatives and to compete with Canada's ''The Globe and Mail'', the establishment newspaper with a liberal bias in Canadian newspapers . Outside Toronto, the ''National Post'' was built on the printing and distribution infrastructure of Black's national newspaper chain, formerly called Southam Newspapers, that included papers such as the ''Ottawa Citizen'', ''Montreal Gazette'', ''Edmonton Journal'', ''Calgary Herald'', and ''Vancouver Sun'' and Benny Peiser continues to participate in stories with these newspapers as well.〕〔〔(【引用サイトリンク】 title=Dr Benny Peiser )〕〔 (【引用サイトリンク】title=Energy and Environment ).〕〔("Energy & Environment: Mission Statement". ) Accessed: 19 May 2012.〕 ==Background== Born of German parents in Haifa, Israel, in 1957, Peiser's family soon returned to Germany. He grew up in Frankfurt and "spent the first 35 years of his life" in Germany.〔 〕 Peiser studied political science, English, and sports science at Frankfurt University, receiving a doctorate in cultural studies (''Kulturwissenschaften'') from that institution in 1993, for an examination of the history, archaeology and natural history of Greek problems at the time of the ancient Olympic Games.〔 |editor1=Peiser, Benny J. |editor2=Trevor Palmer, and Mark E.
