The megametre (SI symbol: Mm) is a unit of length in the metric system equal to 1 000 000 meters (10 6 m). To help compare different orders of magnitude, this section lists lengths starting at 10 6 m (1 Mm or 1,000 km).
Based on national pledges to reduce greenhouse gas emissions, global mean temperature is projected to increase by 2.7 °C (4.9 °F), which would cause loss of about half of Earth's glaciers by 2100—causing a sea level rise of 115±40 millimeters. [139] There are roughly 200,000 glaciers on Earth, which are spread out across all continents. [140]
The metre (or meter in US spelling; symbol: m) is the base unit of length in the International System of Units (SI). Since 2019, the metre has been defined as the length of the path travelled by light in vacuum during a time interval of 1 / 299 792 458 of a second, where the second is defined by a hyperfine transition frequency of caesium.

A few kilometers from the city is Torre Guaceto (Guaceto Tower), a World Wildlife Fund nature reserve of the State whose extension is approximately 1,200 square feet (110 m 2) and a sea front which stretches for about 8,000 mt. The marine area is represented by a perfect rectangle, with an average depth of 3,000 meters, crossed and divided by ...

The 30-kilometer-long branch line between Empalme and La Zarza was more complex due to difficult terrain. [4] This resulted in the construction of several bridges and viaducts using a gauge of 1220 millimeters, [19] originating from Scotland and differing from the gauges used in most British and European layouts. This makes the Tharsis railway ...
