International System of Units (SI)
There are seven SI base units, which are:
- Length - meter (m)
- Mass - kilogram (kg)
- Time - second (s)
- Temperature - kelvin (K)
- Electric current - ampere (A)
- Luminous intensity - candela (cd)
- Amount of substance - mole (mole)
There are no social, environmental or economic measures within this international system, yet there are many metrics that dominate the lives of everyone.
