The 20th century saw a new era of environmental revolution, with nations signing conventions and treaties to protect biodiversity. The Convention on Wetlands of International Importance, especially as Waterfowl Habitat, emphasizes the conservation and wise use of wetlands, especially as habitat for waterbirds. Wetlands are now recognized as ecosystems that are vital for biodiversity conservation and sustainable development, and the treaty is also known as the ‘Convention on Wetlands’. The Convention on Wetlands is an intergovernmental treaty adopted in 1971 in Ramsar, Iran. It is the first multilateral environmental agreement on the conservation and sustainable use of natural resources, and its provisions are relatively straightforward. The global movement to preserve wetlands began in the 1960s, led by ornithologists concerned about the worldwide loss of migratory bird habitat. The Ramsar Convention was signed in 1971 by 18 nations, addressing the need to protect the ecosystem as a whole. It has been amended twice since its adoption, focusing on the need to promote the benefits of sustainable development and protection of wildlife, wetlands, etc. The convention is successful because it does not focus on the need to protect a species or a group of species, but instead emphasizes the need to protect the ecosystem as a whole.
