Where Are They Now: The Planeteers

Kwame- Following the Disbandment of the Planeteers Kwame returned to his homeland, where he began working with the government to prevent the destruction of the nation's environment. After a several years and a few Coups, Kwame found himself the nation's president. After going to New York City for a presentation to the United Nations, he was informed by his nation's U.N. ambassador, that there had been a Coup in his absence. He chose to live as a voluntary exile. He is currently an Executive Vice-President of the Sierra Club. He lives in San Francisco with his wife and 2 children.

Wheeler-The former loose cannon of the Planeteers, left the team in 1996, just prior to the group's disbandment. For several years after leaving the Planeteers, he attempted to do free-lance work for the planet, but, there wasn't a lot of work available for guys who hadn't finished high school, and wanted to help the planet. So Wheeler set out to change that. He earned his GED in 1998, and then attended prestigious DeVry University. He currently works for Ladder Co. No. 219, fighting to control the element he once commanded. He lives alone in Brooklyn, NY

Linka- Linka began a successful import company following the fall of the Iron Curtain in 1992. She successfully ran this business on-the-side, while she focused on planeteering. In 1997, her relationship with Captain Plant came to light, causing a major scandal and eventually the disbandment of the Eco-Terror battling Task-Force. She now works full-time importing goods from the Former Soviet Union. She lives in Boston, MA with her son Viktor Planet-Raskolnikov

Gi- Gi was crushed by the scandal that brought an abrupt end to the Planeteers. Following months of dealing with crippling depression, she checked herself into a mental health facility in Switzerland. She emerged 2 years later, finally comfortable with what happened in the last days of the Planeteers. She went to college and is currently one China's foremost Marine Biologists. She lives in Hong Kong with her husband of 4 years.

Ma-Ti-The youngest Planeteers had one of the brightest futures. After the group stopped its ground-breaking work, Ma-Ti began working for the Environmental Lobby in Washington, D.C., where he was the lobby's most successful lobbyist in regards to rainforest destruction. While doing his work to save the rainforest Ma-Ti was diagnosed with Heart Disease. He then put all his efforts towards spreading awareness of his disease. Ma-Ti died in 2001.

Captain Planet- Following the disbandment of the Planeteers, things went badly for Captain Planet. Firstly all his closet friends left him; secondly he was under investigation for having sexual relations with a minor. His tryst with Linka failed to give him love; it only succeeded in giving him jail time and child support payments. In 1997 he pled No Contest to 276 counts of Statutory Rape, and was sentenced to spend 5 years in prison. While in prison, he had an incredible transformative experience, and converted to Islam. He was released from prison in 2002. He is now named Omar Abdullah Ibn Haroun al Sharif, and lives in Dearborn, MI; where he owns a McDonalds franchise.
