Birds Korea - conserving birds and habitats in South Korea and the Yellow Sea eco-region What Has Really Changed? Birds Korea, February 2nd 2014 In the ten years since Birds Korea was founded, the Republic of Korea (ROK) has hosted several high-profile international meetings relevant to bird and habitat conservation, including the Conference of the Parties (COP) of the “Wise Use of Wetlands” Ramsar Convention in 2008 and the World Congress Conservation in 2012. Later this year too, the nation will host the 2014 Convention on Biological Diversity COP. On the surface, there has been tremendous progress in bird and biodiversity conservation in the past decade. Bird Declines While public attitudes in the ROK towards conservation have improved greatly, many bird species are still in decline. Our research indicates that the declines in some species have been long-term and gradual, likely caused by a combination of habitat degradation and loss, pollution, climate change, and increased pressures both inside and outside of the ROK.
