Public Values of the Marine Environment

'Public Perceptions of Europe’s Seas – A Policy Brief' is a European survey on what the public values in terms of the marine environment and governance. One of the authors, Dr Tavis Potts, Scottish Association of Marine Science says: ‘The report presents the results and key highlights of a survey of 7000 people across 7 countries including the UK. I think you will find the results quite interesting and useful with a few 'eye openers' around trust and governance, support for MPAs, and ocean awareness amongst countries. The research highlights the importance of education and communication in driving ocean citizenship.
