The issue of the environment has been increasingly discussed in recent years.

This growth can be sought through the joint efforts of all sciences (Human, Physical, Biological and others), each contributing according to their characteristics. Continued Commitment to sustainable development makes it increasingly demanded quality and transparency of companies in the Financial, Social and Environmental Statements. The accounting has an important role in today's world, because it is responsible for the information generated and issued by companies. This work intends to present how the Science of Accounting can contribute to preserving the environment and seeks to identify how it can contribute to environmental management and how this captures the external environment costs in order to process them and turn them usable in the process of decision-making information.
