520 3 |a The natural environment of Antarctica represents 3 unique values which are recognised by Antarctica scientists through The Madrid Protocol 1991; its wilderness, its aesthetic values and its scientific values. These values are essential to be protected for the future generation. A survey is necessary to show that the public understood these core values in support of the scientist's demands for these values to be protected. The findings from this survey will confirm the indicative notions earlier. This paper will discuss the factors selected in determining the public perceptions of Antarctic Value to the policy makers in constructing The State Environmental Protection Policy.
