520    Features papers that discuss various aspects of 
       sustainability, environmental performance, and 
       environmental disclosures. This title also contains papers
       that analyze what firms do about environmental issues and 
       how these activities and their impact on the environment 
       are disclosed in the financial statements.|bAccounting as 
       an academic discipline has not made any real strides in 
       addressing social and environmental concerns facing this 
       planet. Since the first volume of the series was published
       in 2000, there have been no changes in the focus of 
       accounting and it is still taught and practiced in the 
       same way. Social/environmental/sustainability accounting 
       is still a fringe subject despite the fact that ignoring 
       environmental issues has serious consequences for the 
       survival of this planet. Unless social and environmental 
       accounting is formally recognized, firms will continue to 
       view it as a means to convey information that enables them
       to manage their reputation without actually making any 
       real efforts to improve the environment. The papers 
       included in this volume discuss different aspects of 
       sustainability, environmental performance, and 
       environmental disclosures. Overall, it is fairly obvious 
       from these papers that firms are aware of the impact of 
       their activities on the environment. Some of the papers 
       analyze what firms do about environmental issues and how 
       these activities and their impact on the environment are 
       disclosed in the financial statements. Though the papers 
       come to different conclusions, it becomes clear from these
       studies that firms have problems in managing the impact of
       their environmental activities as well as in disclosing 
       full and realistic information on these activities. Thus, 
       it appears from these papers that firms manage their 
       message to look good to outsiders.
