Abstract
This paper critically reviews Wambsganss and Sanford's "The Problem with Reporting Pollution Allowances". It argues that environmental accounting on the cost basis fails to tackle the urgencies of the environmental issue. Ultimately, environmental accounting will prove destructive of nature because it does not contextualise the relationships between humanity and nature.
