Later he moved to the United Kingdom and at the age of 16 joined the Royal Air Force. He was posted in India and North Africa. After World War II he worked as journalist in France. He moved back to Canada in 1951, living in Winnipeg, West Vancouver, and Shawnigan Lake. He worked as a journalist, editor, and freelance correspondent for Winnipeg Free Press, the Province in Vancouver and other publications. He also started a public relations company with his second wife Dorothy. In 1971 he joined the crew member of the Greenpeace boat sailing to protest against U.S. army nuclear bomb test near Amchitka island. When the Greenpeace Foundation was established, Metcalfe became its first chairman. He recognized the importance of a media campaign as a tool to gain support for environmental issues. He left his post when Greenpeace changed focus from nuclear weapons to fighting against whaling and seal hunting. He is the author of a biography of Roderick Langmere Haig-Brown: Metcalfe, E. Bennett (1985). A man of some importance : the life of Roderick Langmere Haig-Brown Published by James W. Wood, Vancouver. ISBN 0-921063-01-6, ISBN 0-921063-00-8. Metcalfe died of a heart attack at age 83. He had three daughters Michelle, Charlotte, and Sophie; and sons Christopher (1958-1980), and Michael (1956-2002) (en)

Li estis inter la unuaj, kiuj komprenis la potencon de amaskomunikiloj por la medidefendaj kampanjoj. Ben Metcalfe forlasis Greenpeace kiam la organizaĵo ŝanĝis sian direkton laŭ Bob Hunter unu el la kunfondintoj. Li implikiĝis en la batalo kontraŭ uzo de nuklea energio kaj mediprotektado dum novaj generacioj preferis koncentriĝi sur la agoj por ĉesigi la balen- kaj fok-ĉasadon. "Li estis originalulo. Li alportis novan sintezon al la movado." asertis Bob Hunter. Metcalfe mortis en sia hejmo en Shawnigan, 40km norde de pro koratako. (eo)
