Abstract Tourism serves as a crucial means of funding national development and ensuring the sustainability local livelihoods in growing countries such Brazil. Nevertheless, accelerated growth tourism various nations might lead to significant environmental consequences due heightened energy consumption. This surge usage contributes exacerbation global warming through amplified release carbon dioxide (CO 2 ). In light increasingly evident impacts climate change on natural environment, multitude endeavors have been undertaken with aim attaining ecological sustainability. The objective this study is examine dynamic effects economic growth, consumption, emissions Brazil by analyzing time series data spanning from 1990 2019. stationarity was assessed application unit root tests, while an autoregressive distributed lag (ARDL) approach employed analyze relationship between components, accounting for both long-term short-term dynamics. empirical results indicate that 1% rise tourist arrivals leads deterioration causing respective increase CO 1.37%, 1.06%, 0.57% near term, 0.72%, 0.62%, 0.16% long term. article presents policy ideas aimed at achieving neutrality increasing utilization renewable sources, simultaneously fostering sustainable enhance country’s economy.
