Abstract

Summary

The research is devoted to the proving of the existence of prerequisites for the active development of ecological tourism in the Ukrainian regions. The Environmental Kuznets Curve was constructed through the ratio of air emissions and gross regional product per capita during 2005–2018. It was concluded that all studied territories, including Dnipro, Kharkiv, Lviv, Kyiv and Zaporizhzhia regions passed the return point of the curve at the beginning of the second seven-year study period (2012–2018). Furthermore, only Odessa region is characterized by the most stable trends in the greening of tourism in connection with the turning point of EKC in the first seven-year explored period (2005–2011). The existence of social and market preconditions for the active development of ecological tourism in Ukraine and its largest tourist regions has been proved. Further research in this direction are to expand the list of emissions of harmful substances for greater specification of EKC, as well as to specify the directions of regional environmental policy in the field of promotion and dissemination of ecological tourism.
