Dropping Econ major for Envionmental studies effect consulting recruiting?

Hello,

I am currently a double major in Economics and IR. However I am considering dropping Econ for Envionmental studies if I really like my intro classes(I am a sophomore). I would keep my finance minor still. How would this be viewed for consulting? I’m at a top 10 school that’s a target for 2/3 MBB.
