Guck mal in deine /etc/sudoers:

Defaults        env_reset

       env_reset       If set, sudo will reset the environment to only contain
                       the LOGNAME, MAIL, SHELL, USER, USERNAME and the SUDO_*
                       variables.  Any variables in the caller's environment
                       that match the env_keep and env_check lists are then
                       added.  The default contents of the env_keep and
                       env_check lists are displayed when sudo is run by root
                       with the -V option.  If the secure_path option is set,
                       its value will be used for the PATH environment
                       variable.  This flag is on by default.
