The environmental issue that this picture represents is the protection of the Redwood forests. The people who want to protect these forests want the future generation to see what these forests have done for our generation. The forests are the oldest and tallest on the Earth. Many people have cut down so many trees that only about 5% of the forest remains. I would try to learn more about this issue in California or Oregon because that is where the people who protect this forest are. They protect by buying the land that the forest is on so that no one can go there and chop down trees on private property. The people I would consult are people who care about the environment and care enough to spend their money on saving trees. Also I would consult sources like books and magazines about the environment, how to save it, and more about trees and the land that this forest is on.
