The message says:

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
$ guix environment -C --ad-hoc hello -- hello 
guix environment: error: cannot create container: unprivileged user cannot create user namespaces
guix environment: error: please set /proc/sys/kernel/unprivileged_userns_clone to "1"
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---

Have you tried the recommendation?

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
$ su -
Password: 
# echo 1 > /proc/sys/kernel/unprivileged_userns_clone 
# logout

$ guix environment -C --ad-hoc hello -- hello 
Hello, world!
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---
