description To pay attention to environmental issues and problems in today’s modern economy, especially in academia, is a valuable orientation. Cooperation between related organizations about environmental issues is now more important than before. It has covered environmental reporting in several complementary stages. In addition, it has established its new reporting based on the field of environmental disclosure. The latest version of reporting is the integrated reporting, which is the most important environmental disclosure. Usually, any new version on any topic should cover the limitations of the previous version. This paper is a review study. In this study, environmental accounting and its limitations are first explained. Integrated reporting is then discussed as the newest type of financial and non-financial reporting. Finally, the possibility of covering the environmental accounting constraints is examined through integrated reporting. The results showed that the transparency in environmental accounting figures, democratization and information linkages are likely to be achieved through the implementation of integrated reporting. Therefore, it will be effective in covering the limitations of environmental accounting.
