The early 90s brought many great things: acid-wash jeans, grunge music and associated plaid wear, and, of course, the eco-fighting Saturday morning cartoon hero Captain Planet. The series, created by Ted Turner, has been picked up and modernized (only slightly) by the Mother Nature Network—which has posted the first episode here.
