IMO D
As a matter of fact, it's precisely this kind of e-waste that is shaping up to be one of the major environmental issue of our time.
Meaning: If we break down the sentence, we can infer that there are several major environmental issues and the kind of e-state (mentioned) is becoming one of those major environmental issues.
So the Question uses the singular "major environmental issue " instead of "major environmental issues."
Strike Out A, B and C.
Among Choices D and E , E has redundancy and ambiguity error (Own times - Whose??).
So D precisely states the intended meaning with no grammatical errors and hence the correct answer.
A. one of the major environmental issue of our time.
B. one of the major environmental issue in our time.
C. one of major environmental issue in our time.
D. one of the major environmental issues of our time.
E. one of the most major environmental issues of own times.

Ans D
Analysis:
issue vs issues - The subject here is 'one', so the singular verb 'issues' should be used.
Based on this we can eliminate A,B and C
of our time / in our time - The correct idiomatic structure is 'of our time'. The structure 'in our time' is unidiomatic.

D. one of the major environmental issues of our time.Correct
This option correctly uses 'issues of our time'
E. one of the most major environmental issues of own times. Incorrect
