Cold emailing and research as a high school student?

I am interested in being involved with research labs and research projects but feel that I cannot do that until college. I live in an area with little large colleges and universities near me so I find it difficult to get involved with research. I am interested in cold emailing professors for research opportunities and was wondering if it was acceptable to be doing that as a high school sophomore. If not, would anyone suggest ways to be involved in research, either paid or unpaid? If you're a professor or have experience would you help answer my questions? Thank you.

What are some extracurriculars I could do that is stem/medicine based?

I’ve had a lot of ideas on what Extracurriculars I want to do but they just seem too much for me to accomplish as a 16 year old. Some ideas I had was formulating an eco friendly sunscreen using chemistry principals but I would assume you need to have a degree in chemistry. Another idea was creating a skin cancer detecting app, or starting a program by going around to different schools, and/or community centers providing information on skin cancer and hosting events with the help of volunteers from my school. Honestly this all just seems really complicated for me to do especially without a mentor. I plan to start volunteering at a kidney center next month and get a part time job on the weekends. At the moment I am applying to stem/medicine based internships. I need some advice. I am 16 and in 10th grade. I plan to major in chemistry and I aspire to be a dermatologist.
