Explanation
The Convention on Wetlands, also known as the Ramsar Convention, was hosted by:
(C) Ramsar.
The Convention on Wetlands was held in Ramsar, Iran, in 1971. The convention is an international treaty aimed at the conservation and sustainable use of wetlands worldwide. It provides a framework for national action and international cooperation to protect and wisely manage wetlands of international importance.
The Ramsar Convention has gained global recognition, with numerous countries becoming party to the convention and designating Ramsar sites within their territories. These Ramsar sites are wetlands of significant ecological value and are protected under the convention for their biodiversity, water resources, and cultural importance.
It is worth noting that the Stockholm Conference (A) in 1972 was an important United Nations conference on the human environment, which led to the establishment of the United Nations Environment Programme (UNEP). The Kyoto Protocol (B) is an international agreement linked to the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC), focusing on greenhouse gas emissions reduction. The Montreal Protocol (D) is the international treaty aimed at protecting the ozone layer by phasing out ozone-depleting substances.
