Untitled
This was a redirect page to environmental economics, however it was pointed out to me that environmental accounting might make a better sepeate page as it is not the same as environmental economics. I am a newbie in this area and hope that some experts will be willing to weigh in on this page or if it should go back in to environmental economics. wagors 18:59, 29 May 2006 (UTC)

Cleanup
In my opinion, the article requires general clean-up in terms of grammar, relevance and structure. First, there remains the problem of Environmental Accounting redirecting to Environmental economics, while this article describes seperate phenomena. Also, some of the sections in this article are redundant (esp. Why environmental accounting?) and the structure is confusing in general. What is termed Corporate Environmental Accounting could perhaps, after having been worked over, be introduced as a subsection to social accounting? Shadesofx (talk) 14:32, 18 July 2008 (UTC)

I have now introduced environmental accounting as a section of social accounting and included some of the external links and see alsos. Dealing with what this article formerly termed corporate environmental accounting, the sectionsnations; should IMHO only be one DA Sonnenfeld (talk) 10:33, 2 May 2013 (UTC)
 * There was originally an article here that related to accounting. Various editors have redirected the title to:
 * Environmental economics, which is a sub-field of economics, not accounting.
 * Social accounting, which measures accountability.
 * Sustainability measurement (or Sustainability accounting), a sub-field of sustainability.
 * Since per the article on Yue Li, a professor of a accounting who serves on the editorial board of Advances in Environmental Accounting and Management, this seems to be a legitimate sub-field of study in accounting, I'm restoring the article. The other topics can be linked with a hatnote. – Wbm1058 (talk) 20:25, 2 May 2013 (UTC)

Difference with Green accounting
I think that the differences between Environmental accounting ("subset of accounting proper[?], its target being to incorporate both economic and environmental information") and Green accounting ("a type of accounting that attempts to factor environmental costs into the financial results of operations") are not clear and should be explained thoroughly. Otherwise both articles should be merged.Alvarosinde (talk) 10:45, 17 April 2018 (UTC)
