The article examines the features of ecological tourism as a modern component of world tourism. Various scientific and practical approaches to the definition of this concept are analyzed. The functions, main directions and models of ecological tourism development, the mutual influence of ecological tourism and the environment are characterized. Also its role in the sustainable development of territories is analyzed. The methodology is based on general scientific and special research methods, including: analysis, synthesis, generalisation, retrospective analysis and geographical research methods. The article's scientific novelty lies in its comprehensive study of ecological tourism as a contemporary trend in global tourism development and its impact on regional sustainable development. It presents the author's vision of the impact of ecotourism on the surrounding anthropogenic and natural environments. Additionally, it investigates the distinctive characteristics of ecological tourism development in Ukraine. Conclusions. Ecotourism is aimed at protecting the environment and stimulating the economy of local communities. It provides tourists with the opportunity to communicate with nature and encourages them to lead an environmentally friendly lifestyle. Ecotourism also seeks to reduce the impact of tourism on the natural environment.

The article studies the features of film tourism as an innovative form of cultural and educational tourism. The relationship between the development of the global film industry and this type of tourism is analysed. The different types of impact of film tourism on tourist destinations and countries in general are characterised. The methodology is based on general scientific and special research methods, including: analysis, synthesis, generalisation, retrospective analysis and geographical research methods. Scientific novelty is a comprehensive study of film tourism as an innovative direction of development of world tourism and its impact on various aspects of life in the settlements where it has developed. The authors of the article present their vision of the impact of film tourism on the surrounding anthropogenic and natural environment. The peculiarities of the development of film tourism in Ukraine are examined. Conclusions. Film tourism is an innovative and promising area of global tourism development. It has a strong base for development in many countries of the world, both natural and artificially created, and its undoubted advantage is that the list of film attractions and destinations is expanding with every successful film premiere. Cinema tourism can be attractive to different age groups of tourists, but they are all united by a generally high level of education, relatively high incomes and a penchant for cultural leisure. The development of film tourism has a positive impact on both tourist destinations and countries.

The paper discusses a method of chemical polishing of Ti6Al4V samples and presents the results of our study. The samples were produced by selective laser melting, which is an increasingly popular method of producing thin-walled, geometrically complex products. The document analyzes how polishing with solutions featuring a varying content of hydrofluoric and nitric acids affects the etching rate and alters the superficial roughness of the samples in both the longitudinal and the transverse directions. We have thus formulated the recommendations on the optimum composition and concentration of such acidic solutions for polishing Ti6Al4V products made by selective laser melting.
