Abstract

This article is an attempt to define environmental management control, taking as its starting point the two currents of classical management control. Before presenting the different typologies of environmental strategies and their objectives, it is worth considering that any control system can be impacted by the strategy and objectives adopted by the company. After summarizing the various definitions of environmental accounting and environmental management accounting, we review the definitions proposed to date of environmental management control, to deduce the three shades of green first defined by de O'Riordan (1991), before being taken up in the conceptual framework of Antheaume (2013). Finally, we formulate our own definition of environmental management control, accompanied by a new proposal for the conceptual framework of environmental management control.
