Abstract

One of the greatest challenges facing the world today is climate change. Among the most direct, vital and fiercest forms of counterattack made by the great persecution of the natural environment is the punishment of unreasonable development methods of time and the exchange of environment for the economy. Carbon development will not harm the environment in the short term, however, in the long term, it will destroy our blue planet. Businesses need to prioritize environmental sustainability among their priorities. The lack of effective measures taken in the sustainability and sustainable development fields has caused sustainability and sustainable development to be viewed as topics of concern by society due to high pollution levels. Hence, green accounting promotes a sustainable future for enterprises. Green accounting lends enterprises an opportunity to study and grow greener by promoting sustainability. In order to achieve corporate social responsibility based on performance, companies should implement green accounting.
