It began taking shape in the western world in the 1970s; since then, Green parties have developed and established themselves in many countries around the globe and have achieved some electoral success.

Abstract
Accounting has been increasing its importance. As time goes by, it has spread to sectors such as social, environmental, and others, in which they seek to have financial control of the resources that these sectors possess within. In these sectors, the one that has been most affected has been the environmental sector, largely due to the same social development, because people in their daily lives generate waste that is not friendly to the environment, or they do not have the habit of properly classifying these wastes, which is why this chapter seeks to analyze the importance of environmental accounting by inquiring into different sources of consultation on the subject, knowing the progress made by the implementation of environmental accounting in industrial companies and the positive or negative impact that it has had in different socio-economic environments.
