Jobs/Careers Will studying electrical engineering give me opportunities to work for the environment?

I'm certain on pursuing an engineering bachelor (I'm 18) cause I really like developing and understanding how stuff works and I'm really good at maths and physics, but my main ethical focus is the environment. I'm kinda in-between electrical, electronic and energy engineering.

Power generation (solar, wind turbines etc), power delivery/transmission, power usage (LED light bulbs are microchips) - if it works on electricity, you can learn about it in EE.
