Oregon State University has a PhD program in Environmental Science  
that is fairly interdisciplinary. I wouldn't say it's a "build your  
own degree" but it's close. I've included the direct link to the  
program below since the OSU website can be difficult to navigate.

> ecosystems and sustainable adaptations to ensure water and food  
> security. Along with this is geoscience education-- increasing  
> participation of underrepresented groups in the geosciences,  
> fostering an earth science literate society, and how to most  
> effectively educate communities towards sustainable lifestyle
