This paper presents a discussion about how conditions for efficient and effective mitigation, follow-up and post-auditing are influenced by uncertainty in EIA predictions, lack of communication about such uncertainty and lack of transparency in prediction processes. As a conclusion, it is discussed how better communication about uncertainty and more transparent prediction processes can improve the conditions for efficient and effective follow-up and post-auditing, and thereby also for protection of the environment.
