Resumo: Preoccupations with global environmental issues press the traditional accounting to include corporate environmental responsibility. These issues have a growing influence upon corporate decision making. In this sense, this study aimed to identify accountants’ knowledge level about environmental accounting and its intervening variables. Thus, to cover this central scope, the scientific approach is quantitative and exploratory. The technical procedure was the survey with closed-ended Likert-scale questions. The sampling process was probabilistic, considering the cross-sectional criteria, resulting in a simple random sampling of 47 accountants. Data we analysed by SPSS Statistics software by applying Mann-Whitney, Krustal-Wallis, Post Hoc Dunn-Bonferroni U Test, and Spearman’s correlation. The survey with 47 professionals shows that knowledge level about environmental accounting is 17.5 percent. Male accountants and accounting technicians showed higher knowledge level in terms of environmental accounting. The intervening variables affecting this level is related to participating in accounting events, clarity and objectivity in literature and time of dedication accountants used in relation to environmental accounting. Upon these results we suggest to create specific national events on environmental accounting and its technical procedures covering multi-transdisciplinary areas.Keywords: Environmental impacts; Social environmental responsibility; Environmental accounting; Accountants.

O procedimento técnico empregado foi por meio da pesquisa survey com questionário fechado e escala likert. O processo de amostragem foi probabilístico, considerando-se o critério cross-sectional, resultando na unidade amostral aleatória simples de 47 contabilistas. A análise dos dados ocorreu com auxílio do software SPSS Statistics aplicando-se os testes não paramétricos U de Mann-Whitney, Kruskal-wallis, post hoc Dunn-Bonferroni e a correlação de Spearman. A pesquisa realizada com os 47 profissionais revela que o nível de conhecimento sobre a contabilidade ambiental é de 17,5%. Os contabilistas do sexo masculino e os técnicos em contabilidade apresentaram, em detrimento ao sexo feminino e contadores, um maior nível de conhecimento em relação a contabilidade ambiental. As variáveis intervenientes que influenciam neste nível de conhecimento relaciona-se a participação em eventos contábeis, a clareza e objetividade da literatura e o tempo de dedicação dos contabilistas em relação a contabilidade ambiental. Sugere-se, diante destes resultados, a criação de eventos específicos sobre a contabilidade ambiental e seus procedimentos técnicos, em nível nacional, abrangendo áreas multi e transdisciplinares.Palavras-chave: Impactos Ambientais, Responsabilidade Social e Ambiental, Contabilidade ambiental, Profissionais contábeis. Portal de Periódicos Eletrônicos da UFRN2017-01-02info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfhttps://periodicos.ufrn.br/ambiente/article/view/905210.21680/2176-9036.2017v9n1ID9052REVISTA AMBIENTE CONTÁBIL - Universidade Federal do Rio Grande do Norte; Vol. 9 No. 1 (2017): Jan./Jun.; 223-245REVISTA AMBIENTE CONTÁBIL - Universidade Federal do Rio Grande do Norte; Vol. 9 Núm. 1 (2017): Jan./Jun.; 223-245REVISTA AMBIENTE CONTÁBIL - Universidade Federal do Rio Grande do Norte - ISSN 2176-9036; v. 9 n. 1 (2017): Jan./Jun.; 223-2452176-903610.21680/2176-9036.2017v9n1reponame:Revista Ambiente Contábilinstname:Universidade Federal do Rio Grande do Norte (UFRN)instacron:UFRNporhttps://periodicos.ufrn.br/ambiente/article/view/9052/7871Copyright (c) 2017 REVISTA AMBIENTE CONTÁBIL - Universidade Federal do Rio Grande do Norte - ISSN 2176-9036info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessFeil, Alexandre AndréHaberkamp, Angela MariaAzeredo, Adriano JoséOrso, Tatiane MileidiKronbauer, Clovis AntônioHaetinger, Claus2021-10-19T15:44:14Zoai:periodicos.ufrn.br:article/9052Revistahttps://periodicos.ufrn.br/ambientePUBhttps://periodicos.ufrn.br/ambiente/oai||prof.mauriciocsilva@gmail.com2176-90362176-9036opendoar:2021-10-19T15:44:14Revista Ambiente Contábil - Universidade Federal do Rio Grande do Norte (UFRN)false
