What are Gigaton and Millijoule

Definition of Gigaton

A gigaton is a unit of mass often used to measure the amount of carbon dioxide emissions. Equivalent to one billion metric tons, a gigaton represents a substantial quantity often used in the context of global warming and energy discussions. It is commonly abbreviated as 'Gt' and is a standard measure in scientific studies concerning large-scale environmental impacts.

Definition of Millijoule

A millijoule is a unit of energy in the International System of Units (SI). It is a derived unit equivalent to one-thousandth of a joule, the SI base unit of energy. Represented by the symbol 'mJ', it is often used to measure small amounts of energy released or absorbed in chemical reactions, electronic devices, and other applications where precise energy measurements are required.
