Re: 環.net

It refers to any subject, to expresses surrounding/circle/ring, as with many chinese/japanese words it is one of the parts of of compound word. Not really used by itself.

Some examples of it's use (in trad chinese - which i am more familar with)
環保 - environmental protection
環球 - global worldwide
環境 - environment/surrounding
耳環 - ear ring
光環 - halo
環抱 - embrace
環模 - ring die

Above you can see all words have a concept of surrounding/circle. This is because of the 環 character.
For Chinese the main use of the word would probably be for 環保 (environmental protection- environment), maybe you could try this for the theme?
