Captain Planet and the Planeteers. Captain Planet and the Planeteers is an Americananimatedenvironmentalisttelevision program created by Ted Turner and Barbara Pyle. Realizing that the damage is extensive, Gaia sends five magic rings, four with the power to control an element of nature and one controlling the element of Heart, to five chosen youths across the globe: Kwame from Africa, Wheeler from North America, Linka from the Soviet Union (changed to Eastern Europe after the Soviet Union's dissolution), Gi from Asia, and Ma- Ti from Brazil. These five are dubbed the Planeteers and are tasked with defending the planet from the greatest of disasters and making efforts to educate mankind to keep others from happening. In the beginning of the episodes, Gaia uses her . The Planeteers use transportation (usually a flying machine called a Geo- Cruiser) based on solar power to avoid causing pollution themselves. In situations that the Planeteers cannot resolve alone, they can combine their powers to summon Captain Planet, a super hero, who possesses all of their powers magnified, symbolizing the premise that the combined efforts of a team are stronger than its individual parts.
Captain Planet only appears in his Captain Planet garb. These are not clothes but elements of the planet that are integral to his composition. Captain Planet's outfit does not represent a specific culture. Besides having classical super- hero powers such as flight, super- strength and invulnerability, he is also able to rearrange his molecular structure to transform himself into the various powers and elements of nature.
On the other hand, he is very sensitive to pollutants, which can weaken him considerably. The Planeteers cannot use their rings while Captain Planet has been summoned. Once his work is done, Captain Planet returns to the planet, restoring the Planeteers' powers. When he does this, Captain Planet reminds viewers of the message of the series with his catchphrase, . In the beginning of the series, Gaia assembles a modern- day team of . When the modern- day Planeteers combine their powers to summon the elemental warrior, this incarnation takes on the appearance of a superhero, who takes on the superhero- like name of . His only weakness is when he comes into contact with sources of pollution.
Gaia (voiced by Whoopi Goldberg in 1. She is a modern rendition of the primordial Greek personification of the Earth, possessing an amalgamation of physical characteristics from all human races. Awaking from a century- long slumber, and shocked with the increase in pollution of planet that has sustained in such a short (by her standards) time, she summons the Planeteers to defend the planet and gives them each an elemental ring. Gaia lives on Hope Island, an island with large crystals in the middle of an ocean, although its exact location is never revealed. She is omnipresent; she can appear in any time or place she wishes, and can communicate telepathically with anyone at any point in time. She is bound to the planet, and her health and well being are connected with the condition of the planet. In a September 2.
Barbara Pyle and Nick Boxer it was stated that the Hope Island was located near the Bahamas. Clockwise from top left: Gi, Kwame, Linka, Ma- Ti, and Wheeler. The Planeteers are summoned by Gaia to defend the world from pollution, criminals, villains and natural disasters. The five teenagers, each originating from a different region of the world and who together represent several major ethnic groups, are each given a ring which allows them to temporarily control one of the four classical elements . Pyle cites that the inspiration for the five Planeteers came from real people that she met during the show's pre- production in 1. To summon Captain Planet, the Planeteers must activate their powers in a specific order, (Earth, Fire, Wind, Water, and Heart) preceded by the phrase, .
Animation in the Di. C series was inconsistent, showing some episodes as darker or brighter in color than others, and characters looking different from one episode to the next, and in some cases one segment (or even shot) to the next. The Planeteers' rings are, like Captain Planet himself, susceptible to weakening when in the presence of toxic waste and pollution to the point that they can no longer use their powers or summon Captain Planet. Since the show takes place all over the world, The Planeteers have many methods of travel. The Geo- Cruiser is the 'usual' vehicle for the Planeteers. It is a solar- powered flying craft, in the design of a jet.
The Geo- Cruiser is yellow in colour during the original seasons, but during season six it is given a paint job, and is decorated with red. The Geo- Cruiser can hover, allowing it to land on top of buildings and in rough terrain. The Eco- Cycles are stored somewhere on the Geo- Cruiser, although it is not known how they are stored, or if they are aboard for every mission. Their engines are not fuel- combustion, as that would pollute the air.
Most likely their engines are electric, as their engines make a low whirring noise when in use, and they have flashing lights. The Geo- Copter is a yellow helicopter the Planeteers will occasionally use instead of the geo- cruiser. The Eco- Sub is usually used in missions closer to Hope Island. Occasionally, the Planeteers will also use the Eco- Sub to investigate issues out in the middle of the ocean.
The Eco- Sub is shaped a lot like the Geo- Cruiser. It is yellow in colour, and is fitted with a periscope. The Planeteers are occasionally seen carrying out maintenance on it. Gi is its main driver and operator.
Kwame (voiced by Le. Var Burton): Hailing from Ghana. He has a soft spot for plant life, and even runs his own greenhouse on Hope Island. Growing up in a tribe in his homeland Africa, he is at one with the land and its purpose, and does what he can to preserve it. The de facto leader of the group, he is also the voice of reason that keeps the Planeteers in check when the group begins to lose faith in a given situation. He also acts as a kind of mentor to Ma- Ti. Kwame is the first Planeteer to be summoned.
Wheeler (voiced by Joey Dedio): From Brooklyn, New York, Wheeler controls the power of fire. He is shown to be the least knowledgeable about the planet preservation trends though this improves as the show goes on (in a way representing the oblivious aspect people have of the harm that they can cause to nature). He is exceedingly the most street- smart of the group, yet, while having his heart in the right place, tends to get himself into tight spots when acting impulsively; fittingly, he is sometimes a .
Throughout the series, he openly flirts with and tries to get closer to Linka, almost always having his advances shot down. Wheeler is the second Planeteer to be summoned. Linka (voiced by Kath Soucie): From the Soviet Union (in later episodes stated as being from Eastern Europe after the Communist regime's collapse), Linka has the power of wind. Linka closely studies bird life, and therefore is extremely emotional when pollution or illegal hunting harms them, because she admired birds who were used in the mines to detect gas while growing up as a miner's daughter. Wheeler often tries to flirt with her, and despite more often than not shooting down these advances, is shown every now and again that she too possesses feelings for him, even kissing him in the episode . She is a master of strategy and logic, as well as a computer expert.
Linka peppers her English with Russian words and phrases, the most common one being . Linka is the third Planeteer to be summoned.
Gi (voiced by Janice Kawaye): Hailing from Thailand, Gi controls the power of water. Of the Planeteers' powers, Gi's is the only power that requires a nearby . Gi is a self- proclaimed marine biologist. Her compassion for sea life contributes to the overall effort of the Planeteers' protection of animals, becoming extremely emotional when pollution affects them, especially dolphins (due to finding her dolphin friend dying from pollution as a child), and somewhat impulsive at times.
She also often works on the mechanical and forensic aspects for the team, as well as being the most diplomatic of the group who convinces others to see reason and do the right thing. Gi can also be seen wearing a gold medallion around her neck.
Gi is the fourth Planeteer to be summoned. Ma- Ti (voiced by Scott Menville): From the Amazon of Brazil and raised by a Kayapo Indianshaman, Ma- Ti wields the powers of heart and telepathy to instill caring, passion, and sympathy into the people of the world to care for the planet. He can also use this power to telepathically communicate with people and animals. Twelve years old, Ma- Ti is the youngest and most impressionable member of the Planeteers. He owns a pet monkey named Suchi (voiced by Frank Welker). Ma- Ti is the fifth Planeteer to be summoned.
Eco- Villains. Clockwise from left: Dr. Blight, Verminous Skumm, Duke Nukem, Hoggish Greedly, Zarm, Looten Plunder, and Sly Sludge. The Eco- Villains are a small group of antagonists who cause danger to the planet by committing pollution, deforestation, and poaching. They enjoy the destruction they cause to the planet and the harm they bring upon anyone by any means to obtain wealth, land, or power.
Due to conflict among them from their varying self- serving interests and backgrounds, they tend to work alone most of the time, although episodes do show the villains enter into temporary alliances when it suits their plans. Only in a few episodes did the entire ensemble of Eco- Villains work as a team, with Zarm as kingpin. Each of these villains represent a specific ecological disaster. These include: Hoggish Greedly (voiced by Edward Asner) . Unlike Hoggish Greedly, Porkaloin cleaned the slate and became environmentally friendly as shown in the episode . Skumm can control rats.
He has his own personal helicopter called The Scum O'Copter.
