What does this mean?

All the braking should be engaged by the brake pedal; pure and simple. On an EV, all the regenerative braking should be used to regain as much of the energy as possible -- but this is less efficient than coasting, by definition; so it should not be the way you drive to maximize range on an EV. So, as much braking as possible should come from regeneration

Hi Nick,

Accelerating, then coasting, then braking as little as necessary, is better than accelerating and then braking; even with regenerative braking of an EV.

The latter is how many people drive, and it is not very efficient, so even when you can do regenerative braking to regain some of the energy, it cannot make up the difference.

6 months worth of rain in California in less than a week.

2" / hour rains in California, causing landslides,
Landslides are likely because of huge wild fires,
Huge wild fires are common because of droughts,
Droughts are happening because the snow pack is shrinking,
Snow packs are shrinking because of lots of heat: both in the summer AND because it is warm enough to rain in the winter *instead* of snowing...

Hmmm...
