If you'd like some classics as far as liberals are concerned, The General Theory of Employment, Interest and Money is one of the most defining works in economics. It's a tough read (it will challenge you as a 14 year old), but if you can wrap your head around the ideas, you'll be smarter for it. I will say that the book is about 80 years old, and while not completely out of date, these theories have been developed further since then.
Silent Springs is an excellent environmental recommendation, but if you wanted something newer, Earth in the Balance by Al Gore is a good bet.
On civil rights, I think that reading some of Martin Luther King's letters present an exquisite and articulate arguments for the right to live a life with dignity and without discrimination. Although you know full well what he was all about, the arguments stand strong on any civil rights issue.
If you are looking for something of a compilation, Liberalism and Its Critics is an excellent and easier read that will present you with a diversity of ideas from a wide range of authors ranging from conservatives to liberals to communitarians to libertarians.
