بيئي، بيئية


Explanation:
If the term is modifying a masculine noun, then the term is pronounced BEE'IYY بيئيّ

If the term is modifying a feminine noun, then the term is pronounced BEE'IYYA بيئيّة

Environmental issues = قضايا بيئيّة
Pronounced: QADHAYA BEE'IYYA

I see no harm in using a genitive construction:

قضايا البيئة
Pronounced QADHAYA AL-BEE'A

The most suitable phrasing will depend on the general context, but to a certain extent it is also a matter of style and individual preference.
