Hiking Sierra's: newbie confused with the permit system
Permits in CA mostly regulate entry to keep areas close to parking lots dispersed. Once you are on the trail, you are generally free to wander.

know anything about "ethical" gear, materials, fuels, etc
Our local shop used to recycle canisters. They had a device that punch a hole in them. I think our local rei takes them for recycling too. JetBoil sells a punch now, for the home recycler.

Sunscreen that isn't oil based, doesn't burn your eyes, and is easy to clean off.
Kinesys isn't exactly what you ask for, but it might work for you. The old coppertone ethanol gel was the best. Never did hear why it was pulled off the market.
