Agree

No, more research is needed to measure the long term effects of fracking

While the EDP emphasizes the importance of environmental protection, it also supports evidence-based policy-making. This suggests a cautious approach to fracking, acknowledging the need for more research on its long-term effects, but it's not their primary stance.

Neutral

Yes, but increase oversight

While the EDP might recognize the need for regulatory oversight in industries affecting the environment, their overall stance towards sustainable development and environmental protection suggests a preference for renewable energy sources over fossil fuels, making their support for fracking, even with increased oversight, ambivalent.

Disagree

Yes, but not in heavily populated areas

Strongly disagree

Yes
