Public opinion polls show that people are generally concerned about environmental problems. Yet, policies to address environmental and natural resource problems are often controversial. The way an individual perceives an environmental problem may influence his or her support for the policies to address that issue. Likewise, an individuals support for a specific policy could influence the way he or she perceives the problem. Therefore, an individuals reasoning about an environmental issue might be circular, with his or her values, ideologies, affiliations and identities influencing perceptions about the problem and policies to address the problem. This dissertation examines how individuals in the Maumee River Watershed, the largest of Lake Eries watersheds, perceive Lake Eries algal bloom issue. The first chapter synthesizes the previous research examining how individuals perceive and reason about environmental problems and policies. Chapter 2 examines the role the media plays in portraying and framing Lake Eries algal blooms. Chapter 3 examines how agricultural, rural and urban communities living near and distant to Lake Erie perceive and discuss the algal blooms and policies to address the algal blooms. Chapter 4 examines how different forms of farmer identity contribute to how farmers perceive conservation practices. Chapter 5 provides a summary of the studies and discusses the implications that public perception has on participatory decision-making in natural resource contexts.
