Dual inhibition of the renin-angiotensin system with ARBs, ACEIs, or aliskiren may increase risk of hypotension, hyperkalemia, renal function changes; monitor closely. Avoid concomitant aliskiren in renal impairment (CrCl <60mL/min). Potentiated by, and hypotension with, diuretics.
5 Summary ï· Electricity production is responsible for 32% of total global fossil fuel use, accounting for 132 EJ, and 41%, or 10.9 Gt of energy-related CO 2 emissions.

Nuclear energy is not the only option that does not produce carbon gas, but it is certainly the most reliably efficient. But despite a growing lobby of pro-nuclear environmentalists, there are still the issues of storing nuclear waste and guarding against terrorist attacks on nuclear plants.
