That's wounderfull that you want to help the enviorment/other people. If you like to travel, you caould go to Hati and bulid hostpitals and care centers. Become a vet. (it's not helping people,but it helping somthing that breaths!) Adopt a highway.(not really a job,but helps the enviroment!) Hope I helped!
Peace.

When exploring your options for a future career, you should consider areas where your interests, your abilities, and your values meet. In this case, your values are that you want to help people or the environment. Your abilities, of course, refer to what you are good at, and your interests refer to what you would enjoy. The goal is to find careers that you would enjoy, be good at, and that would help people. Since I don't know what your interests or abilities are, I cannot pinpoint career paths that would be great for you, but I can give you some resources for researching them online.
You can start with the Bureau of Labor Statistics website or the Occupational Outlook handbook if you really want to read in depth about salaries, employment outlook, and the nature of the work.

Another website for researching careers is Vault. It is geared toward careers that require a college degree, so it's a good place to looks if you plan on going to college.

Depending on your interests, you can search further into different fields. Here are some examples:

None of those may be something you are interested in, but I hope you find some useful information. In the mean time, just keep learning about yourself and keep your eyes open for different opportunities.

Hmm, there's too many to name them all but mainly you could be a social worker, psychiatrist, anything that has to do with sociology and psychology. You can get involved with the environment by being a scientist (there's all diff kinds of them). When you go to college, you'll get a better idea though. Pick classes that have anything to do with sociology and environmental science. Also, if you join some charities now, you'll make good contacts and in the future have good references, so it'll be easier getting into a career.
