You can pass the variable and value either by command line or set environment variable like below.

-DEnvironment=dev

then you can use this in log file like :

Environment=${Environment}

Why not just use seperate keys, and pick the right one at runtime?

Environment.dev=Development
Environment.prod=Production
Environment.qa=QA

bundle.getKey(ENVIRONMENT_KEY_PREFIX + ".dev");
