I am in a crisis of career path! please some light.

Hello. I am in a crisis, i want a career in which i could work with renewable energys and something that really benefits society. I was thinking in electrical engineering becouse i enjoy physics and the practical part of mathematics, I am not good in chemistry so i am kinda afraid of going in a field that requires a lot of chemistry and i don't enjoy it as much as physics. But in my crisis I was even thinking ¿if electricty is really indispensable? ¿does it really improve our lives?. I only left 1 month to decide so I am kinda crazy. Please some light and opnions.

This is the best forum i know so thanks anyway for all the suport and advices that i have recived from it. I even forgot my crazy idea of boxing becouse of the advices and warnings of people here that told me about brain damage and all =).
