  8. Climate change won't wait

    Societal change usually happens slowly, even once it's clear there's a problem. That's because, in a country as big as the United States, public opinion moves in leisurely currents.

Think civil rights, gay marriage, equal rights for women.

  10. Could you work at Downton Abbey?
