Are you sure you read execve(2) man page? You just have to pass your env
variables in the last arguments, something like:

char *argz[] = {
    "/bin/sh",
    NULL
};

char *envz[] = {
    "PATH=/bin:/sbin:/usr/bin:/usr/sbin",
    "TERM=v100",
    "FOO=bar",
    NULL
};

execve(argz[0], argz, envz);
