Aiming that its activities are accepted by the community, there is a growing search for greater accountability around information related to the environmental sphere. In this context, Environmental Accounting assists its users by providing information on environmental events that interfere in the equity situation of companies, through their identification, measurement and disclosure. This study aimed to highlight the knowledge level of Environmental Accounting among accounting professionals in the city of Natal - RN. To achieve this objective, the exploratory and descriptive methodology were used, using surveys as the technical procedure. As for the approach to the problem, the research is classified as qualitative and quantitative. The study was developed through an online questionnaire using the Google Forms platform and it was distributed via e-mail and “WhatsApp” to the concerning professionals. The survey application was held between the March 10th and the 28th of 2021. From the answers obtained, it was found that most of the accountants in the study sample have a great lack of knowledge about Environmental Accounting. Asked about the profile of organizations, 93.1% of professionals reported that the companies in which they operate do not disclose information on performance and environmental management. This scenario suggests an inhibition in the search for training and greater preparation in the environmental scope, by these professionals, due to not being charged for this knowledge in the work environment, since there is no demand around the disclosure of environmental practices. On the other hand, the study demonstrates that there is a great appreciation from these professionals around the importance of accounting as an instrument to help sustaintability and environmental management practiced by companies.Attribution-NonCommercial-NoDerivs 3.0 Brazilhttp://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/3.0/br/Contabilidade ambientalProfissionais contábeisNível de conhecimentobachelorThesis
