And it considers calculating the cost of reducing consumption of resources using User Cost Approach, calculating the cost of maintenance way environmental degradation cost using Maintain Cost Method and estimating the environmental risk loss using risk loss ratio. This paper also discusses the significance of logistics environmental cost.
