Marek Mayer (1952–2005) was a prominent environmental journalist who influenced the development of UK environmental policy for over 25 years. Born in London of Polish parents, Marek obtained a master's degree in environmental studies at Manchester University before joining the fledgling subscription journal ENDS Report in 1979. The journal had been founded the year before by Edward Max Nicholson and David Layton of Incomes Data Services. The journal faced hard times in its early years and its staff complement fell to just two - with Marek providing all of the content for many years. However, as the environmental business agenda grew in the 1980s, the journal took off and became essential reading for politicians, business specialists, campaigners and consultants. Marek's ability to scan vast amounts of information and his eye for detail made him a force to be reckoned with. Although he became a director of a successful business which employed over thirty people, his top priority remained the environment and he never lost his enthusiasm for journalism. Marek continued to make a substantial contribution to the ENDS Report until months before his death from kidney cancer on 23 July 2005. == References == 〔 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Marek Jerzy Tadeusz Mayer」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
