The correct answer should be the option 3 - been.
The corrected full sentence will be - Environment has always been in control of our destiny.
The word 'been' is used in this context of the given sentence because the word 'has' is used in the sentence. The word 'has' refers to past tense and so, from the given sentences, 'been' is the right word to be used after the word 'always' in this context.
Since the word 'has' is used, the word ' was' cannot be used consequently, although they are both in past tense.
