[[WMG: The cartoon series takes place in the same universe as The Mask.]]
The basis for this guess is the shared link of Tim Curry and his characters in each cartoon. We know that prior to her facial scarring and insanity, Dr. Blight was once a good-natured scientist who worked with her lab assistant/husband Malcolm to create a computer AI. After the accident supposedly took Malcolm's life and left her insane, she reprogrammed the AI into her computer MAL and gave it Malcolm's face. What if Malcolm didn't die but had also been driven insane in the accident? Mask villain Pretorius sure looks a LOT like MAL, after all... and he was never given any sort of history in the series beyond the surgical removal of his own head to plant it onto a robotic body.

I always felt this was how the various planeteers and the Eco-Villians lined up
Linka- Duke Nukem (The radiation-Chernobyl incident seems like it would fit, besides wind can spread nuclear fallout)
Wheeler- Verminous Skumm (both city dwellers)
Ma-Ti- Looten Plunder (Ma-Ti represents heart while Looten Plunder has no heart)
Kwame- Sly Sludge (Kwame takes the long term view with ecology while Sly Sludge is short sighted)
Gi- Dr Blight (Gi wants to be a good scientist while Dr Blight is an evil scientist
The whole reason the Eco Villians try to stop the planeteers is because they want to keep them busy fighting them instead of spreading their solar powered technology. Want to give that poor third world country solar roofs so they can all have electricity, sorry guys Looten Plunder is going to turn Lake Michigan into a cesspool!

Linka- Duke
Wheeler- Verminous

Kwame- Sly
Gi- Dr
[[WMG: Why the Ecovillains do what they do -- it's a XanatosGambit]]
Every effort of the Planeteers to fight the blindingly obvious ecological threats is time taken from fighting more subtle threats or from negotiating new non-superheroic solutions to existing problems.

[[WMG: The Heart Ring would've turned Wheeler into a male version of Sailor Moon.]]
Wheeler is clumsy, ditzy and whiny almost as much as Serena/Usagi. Like her, he also had an IJustWantToBeNormal wish granted, but took it back. While Sailor Moon's friends have elemental powers, her power is, basically, "Heart". Had Wheeler got the power of Heart, he would've become Sailor Moon!

He wields power over all four elements, and the sequence is even the same! (Earth, Fire, Wind, Water vs Water, Earth, Fire, Air). Heart could be what makes avatars able to go into the avatar state and bend all four elements. After lying dormant for man generations, Gaia needed a champion of the world, so she reawakened the avatar to bring balance to the world. [[{{SoYeah}} Or just the environment...]]
