Discussion assignment


 Describe the importance of a universal standard measuring system (SI units) in scientific work. Include at least two examples of real-life situations in which the use (or non-use) of SI units affected the outcome of the situation. In many countries, SI units are standard, but this is not true in the United States. In your opinion, why have we not adopted SI units in the United States? Do you think the United States will (or should) in the future?
