Luckily, Captain Planet is able to find the plant before the forest is cut down.

* 15. The Conqueror - The Planeteers are led astray by the promise of power from Zarm, a war-like Earth spirit. He tricks the Planeteers (all but Ma-Ti) into disobeying Gaia and starting a sinister game that could lead to nuclear war and, ultimately, global destruction.

* 16. The Ultimate Pollution - Looten Plunder instigates a war between two desert villages (by telling the chiefs of both villages that the other village was going to attack them, both chiefs blame each other for starting the war and both view Plunder as a hero) so that he can sell firearms to both sides.

When an accident traps Wheeler alone in an ice cavern with Dr. Blight, Wheeler gets Bitter and decides to use Blight's time machine to go back in time and stop himself from becoming a Planeteer because of being trapped in a carbon-dioxide-filled chamber with Dr. Blight when he could be celebrating a New Year's Eve party, Wheeler admits this is one of those times he regrets becoming a Planeteer and even Captain Planet cannot save Wheeler because of too much nuclear radioactivty on ice fall that caused ice cavren.

Wheeler gives the date and location, but is reluctant to actually go until Blight pushes him through the time pool.
* 26. Two Futures Part Two - Going 360 days back in time to New York, Wheeler catches the ring meant for his past self and warns him to refuse it since it's fatal. His past self agrees and flees, but then Wheeler is suddenly approached by Gaia, who tells him that he changed history in more ways than he thought. Greedly was never stopped from going back in time himself, so global warming is now much worse thanks to his decades' worth of polluting. The Planeteers never formed without their fifth member, and Captain Planet could not be summoned without the Ring of Fire. Wheeler doubts this can't be true, since others might have been chosen to fulfill his destiny. Gaia takes him forward 35 years through MAL's time-pool system, where he finds New York flooded from global warming. When Gaia gives him the chance to go into the future and see the consequences of his actions, Wheeler realizes how much he, along with every individual, contributes to the future of the planet.

* 33. Isle of Solar Energy - The Planeteers stumble across the island of Dr. Apollo, an American scientist who has perfected incredible devices for storing and transmitting solar power. They discover that the laboratory assistant is actually Leadsuit, who is helping Duke Nukem subvert solar technology to produce a radioactive weapon.

Dr. Apollo receives an electric shock that erases his memory of his solar inventions, but sets out to rediscover the secrets. Special Guest Stars: Danny Glover as Dr. Apollo and Cree Summer as Karen
* 34. The Coral Killer - Hoggish Greedly and Rigger teach Tacio, a struggling Filipino fisherman, how to go dynamite fishing, without telling him the irreversible damage it does to the fish population and to the coral reef. It is all a cover for Greedly's underwater Reef Ripper, which is harvesting the shattered coral. But Gi takes Tacio's wife Marcaria underwater, and then to an impoverished, wave-battered island nearby, to show what can happen when a protective reef is gone. Captain Planet disassembles the Reef Ripper and uses it to start a new coral reef.
* 35. The Big Clam-Up - The people of San Francisco are collapsing with symptoms that suggest a whole range of pollution poisoning. As the Planeteers follow clues to solve this mystery, Ma-Ti (who is reading 1940s detective novels) keeps imagining himself as a private eye in black-and-white sequences.

* 36. Off Road Hog - Pete, a dirt bike enthusiast, loves off-road racing with Hoggish Greedly and Rigger, until Ma-Ti and desert guide Joshua Stone show him how alive this "barren" desert really is, and how much damage off-road vehicles do to it. Pete and the Planeteers swoop in on hang gliders to stop Greedly's ORV race, but Captain Planet is needed to save everyone from a flash flood.
* 37. An Inside Job - Sludge and four of the Planeteers learn first hand the terrible effects of untreated sewage when MAL and Dr. Blight shrink the EcoSub (and them) to microscopic size and put them into polluted water, which Kwame unwittingly drinks.

They accidentally enlarge a parasite as well, and must summon Captain Planet to toss the giant worm into the shrinking ray.

* 43. Birds of a Feather - Linka and Ma-Ti visit a friend, Juan, in Central America. While there, Juan's parrot, El Profesor, leads them to a secluded "bird paradise" when a giant, metallic bird appears. All the birds, including El Profesor, follow it, as do Linka and Ma-Ti, who soon find themselves locked in a giant aviary, courtesy of Hoggish Greedly, who is running an exotic bird smuggling venture.

* 46. Fare Thee Whale - The Planeteers are shocked to see a mother whale killed during a whaling expedition engineered by Dr. Blight and Looten Plunder, but they are even more shocked to learn that it is legal, due to a loophole in the international laws, allowing whaling for the purpose of research.

* 47. Summit to Save Earth Part One - At the Earth Summit in Brazil, the Planeteers are impressed by the proposed ecology measures, until the world leaders suddenly reverse their positions - victims of Zarm's treachery, who has united all the other Eco-Villains under him. He then tricks the Planeteers into giving up their rings and zaps Gaia into human form, aging her and destroying the planet simultaneously. The Planeteers' only hope is to find Commander Clash.
* 48. Summit to Save Earth Part Two - After discovering that it is ten years later outside Zarm's ship, the Planeteers race to find Commander Clash before Gaia ages into dust. He returns with them and fights Zarm, but is defeated and opts to return to his island. The Planeteers refuse to give up and are recaptured and taunted by Zarm. He is just about to decimate Ma-Ti when Clash reappears and saves Gaia and the Planeteers.
* 49. Losing Game - Kwame takes the Planeteers to Africa to meet an old friend from his tribe, Dr. Mabutu, who is experiencing trouble on his game ranch.

The opening dialog is changed to have Linka located in Eastern Europe, instead of the Soviet Union.

* 53. Greenhouse Planet- The story involved Doctor Blight eagerly appealing to a George H. W. Bush-like President to support her new car fuel, which he does in a fairly narrow-minded fashion to the chagrin of the pressuring Planeteers. A one way trip to space courtesy of Blight sees the President receive a history lesson from Kwame and Ma-Ti on what led to Venus burning up, and changes his mind on supporting Blight's fuel. The episode is also noticeable for featuring Captain Planet working largely throughout the episode with only the powers of Earth and Heart keeping him together (his powers cannot escape the planet's gravitational pull, therefore he could not return Kwame and Ma-Ti's powers to them) It is also known for the President's role and famous line "well now I'm bushed!"

Blinded by greed, the townspeople fail to realize that their natural resources are being drained in order to create the things they wish for. They soon learn the effects of this, but the Planeteers need Captain Planet to get rid of Zarm, and quell a near war between the townspeople and the villagers in the hills, who also want a piece of the Dream Maker.

The main story sees Wheeler arrive in Northern Ireland where the conflict is between Protestant and Catholic. Kwame and Linka travel to South Africa where the blacks and whites are raging battles. Gi and Ma-Ti travel to Israel where tensions are high between Palestinians and Jews. The episode's portions set in Belfast have become a popular viral internet meme; its wildly inaccurate accents and depictions of the Troubles have been met with large degrees of mirth from Northern Ireland inhabitants. Special guest star: Kenneth Mars as Marshall Lowkowitz.
*65. The Night of the Wolf- When Looten Plunder introduces the "Robo-Wolf", can the real wolves put a stop to it?
