carrying
The carrying capacity of an environment is the maximum population size of a biological species that can be sustained by that specific environment, given the food, habitat, water, and other resources available. The carrying capacity is defined as the environment's maximal load, which in population ecology corresponds to the population equilibrium, when the number of deaths in a population equals the number of births (as well as immigration and emigration). The effect of carrying capacity on population dynamics is modelled with a logistic function. Carrying capacity is applied to the maximum population an environment can support in ecology, agriculture and fisheries. The term carrying capacity has been applied to a few different processes in the past before finally being applied to population limits in the 1950s. The notion of carrying capacity for humans is covered by the notion of sustainable population.
At the global scale, scientific data indicates that humans are living beyond the carrying capacity of planet Earth and that this cannot continue indefinitely. This scientific evidence comes from many sources but is presented in detail in the Millennium Ecosystem Assessment, in ecological footprint accounts, or planetary boundaries research. An early detailed examination of global limits was published in the 1972 book Limits to Growth, which has prompted follow-up commentary and analysis. A 2012 review in Nature by 22 international researchers expressed concerns that the Earth may be "approaching a state shift" in its biosphere.
I traveled every week for over 20 years - how does one accidentally pack ammo in your luggage?
I had a flight carry on bag and a range bag
and carrying loaded guns in you checked baggage?
how does anyone today NOT know they are going to x-ray your luggage...
After getting into 2011's, I'm selling my DA/SA P229 Legion in 9mm with night sights. It has never malfunctioned and has always been great to shoot, but it doesn't get the love it deserves.
Comes with all that you see in the pictures. There's some very slight wear on the front of the internal...
Most likely plenty of missed opportunities by the justice system prior to this tragedy.

Classic Coleman propane lantern with handy-dandy carrying case so it doesn't get broken in transit. Works great, just needs new mantles and some propane and you're ready to go!
Face-to-face in St. Johns, PDX, OR. Cash or app preferred!
Looking to buy one factory polymer hard case that has the IWI Logo on the foam inserts shown on top when you open it. Would prefer it even more if it came with paper works and some of the accessories that comes with it minus the magazines.

Howdy.
Heading back to the PNW this spring to do some hiking and camping. What are the current regs on carrying while doing so? Does my handgun need to be visible(open carry) at all times? Would using a hill people gear kit bag be verboten, since it is concealed?
Also, if I'm heading up to WA...
One of the reasons I don't open carry and use regular looking bags when moving guns to vehicle etc. Another example closer to home the reinhoel murderer who murdered a trump supporter in cold blood. He was part of a group that several weeks earlier attacked a man open carrying in downtown...
I know WA state law differentiates between pistols and rifles regarding condition of storage in transport (i.e. transporting a pistol vs rifle with a mag in and/or a round chambered). Anyone happen to know how the law applies to AOWs (i.e. pistol with VFG) and Firearms (i.e. Mossbeeg Shockwave)?
These are in new-like condition since I never ended up using them. They are MTM .50 caliber crates which have rubber O-rings to keep out moisture. They are stackable and have lockable with padlocks. FTF and cash only. Meet at the Tualatin Cabelas parking lot.
Has there been any advancement in ways to shotgun ammo other then a belt with shell loops?
If you were going to carry a non-detachable magazine shotgun in a SHTF situation, how would you carry extra ammo?
ETA: 2 of my "main" shoguns do have side saddles on them and stock pouches.
Hello,
first-time firearm purchaser here, I recently bought my a Glock 19 Generation 3 and am wondering about the legality of carrying my handgun in the factory container (locked) in a bag/backpack while being a pedestrian (walking/biking/e-scooter), and traveling on the bus systems in the...
Hey guys, I am going to be taking my niece and nephew to the Zoo this weekend and I was wondering if there are still no metal detectors, or if there have been any changes to entrance policies, such as pat downs etc. It has been a few years since I've been, but I've never had any trouble carrying...
This was in the wake of the incident that happened today, but take note that the behavior of law-enforcement was out of step considering the hospital was considerably far from the actual event occurrence. A little mini version of Katrina perhaps? looking for an opportunity to disarm people at...
