Environmental auditing is essentially an environmental management tool for measuring the effects of certain activities on the environment against set criteria or standards. The relevance of this tool is growing because organisations of all kinds now recognise the importance of environmental matters and accept that their environmental performance will be scrutinised by a wide range of interested parties. These parties will use environmental auditing to investigate, understand and identify actions which help improve existing human activities, with the aim of reducing their adverse effects on the environment. An environmental auditor is the professional who will, on behalf of these parties, study an organisation\u2019s environmental effects in a systematic and documented manner and will produce an environmental audit report based on the data provided. There are many reasons for undertaking an environmental audit, which include issues such as environmental legislation and pressure from customers.<\/p>\n

As a matter of definition, the term \u201caudit\u201d has its origins in the financial sector. Auditing, in general, is a methodical examination of procedures and practices aimed at verifying whether they comply with legal requirements, internal policies and accepted practices. The expression \u201cenvironmental auditing\u201d is often used as a generic term covering a variety of management practices used to evaluate a company\u2019s environmental performance. Strictly, it refers to checking systems and procedures against standards or regulations, as said before, but it is often used to cover the gathering and evaluation of any data with environmental relevance.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Considering the terminology used in the area, environmental auditing should not be confused with environmental impact assessment, although both are environmental management tools and the difference between them has become blurred. The former is carried out when a development is already in place, and is used to check on existing practices, assessing the environmental effects of current activities. It is correct to say that it provides a \u201csnap-shot\u201d of looking at what is happening at that point in time in an organisation. The latter is an anticipatory tool, that is, it takes place before an action is carried out. It is therefore an attempt to predict the impact on the environment of a future action, and to provide this information to those who make the decision on whether the project should be authorised. Internet: (adapted).<\/p>\n

A express\u00e3o “auditoria ambiental” \u00e9 muitas vezes usada como um termo gen\u00e9rico que cobre uma variedade de pr\u00e1ticas de gest\u00e3o que s\u00e3o usadas para avaliar o desempenho ambiental de uma empresa. A rigor, se refere a sistemas de verifica\u00e7\u00e3o e procedimentos baseados em normas ou regulamentos, como dito antes, mas muitas vezes \u00e9 usada para investigar a coleta e avalia\u00e7\u00e3o de quaisquer dados com relev\u00e2ncia ambiental.<\/span><\/p>\n <\/p>\n Considering the terminology used in the area, environmental auditing should not be confused with environmental impact assessment, although both are environmental management tools and the difference between them has become blurred.
