Summary

Tourism in Fernando de Noronha, Brazil, generates a significant ecological deficit of 26.7548 global hectares, indicating substantial environmental impacts despite its economic and conservation benefits. The study applied the Tourism Ecological Footprint Method to assess these impacts using secondary data analysis. Findings highlight the need for urgent measures, such as transitioning to renewable energy sources and raising tourist awareness about resource conservation, to mitigate negative effects on this UNESCO-listed archipelago.
