It depends how you define "loving" the environment.

If you want to make posters, go around to schools talking to kids, protesting, etc, join a place like greenpeace, nrdc, and other non-profit organizations.

If you actually want to make a difference, then its a bit tricky. Helping the environment requires a lot of research, development, and other industrial things. If you're young enough, start an educational career in physics, chemistry, bio-chemistry, biology, bio-physics, or any other scientific or engineering field. Greenpeace won't save the environment, scientists will. Every meaningful contribution to the environment has and will come through scientists spending 10,12, 14 hours of day in a lab looking for a way to refine ethanol with 1% more efficiency or producing a hydrogen complex with 10% less volatility or something of the sorts. If you love the environment, you'll do the work that doesn't get news coverage and work for organizations or companies no one has ever heard of because they're the ones who make the real contributions.

Everyone goes on TV claiming we need more funding for this, more funding for that, ethanol this, low emissions that. The real problem is no one says we need more chemists, physicists, biochemists which is what we REALLY need. These innovations won't come from protesters, they'll come from labs.
