Does 'jupyter kernelspec' have a "command" to add environment variables?

All,

I know of the way you can add an environment variable to a kernel.json by adding something like:

 "env": {
  "CARTOPY_DATA_DIR":"/path/to/shapefiles"
 },

but I was wondering is there a jupyter kernelspec command one can use to do this “programmatically”? That is, say I create my kernelspec with python3 -m ipykernel install as usual and then can I do, say, jupyter kernelspec add-env or some sort of thing?

I’m just trying to make it “easy” for me to always add, say, a CARTOPY_DATA_DIR to any kernel I make.
