 # About this book
 
-_The Environmental Data Science_ book compiles research in the application of **Data Science and AI** for monitoring and modelling a wide diversity of environmental systems. 
+_The Environmental Data Science_ book showcase and support the publication of data, research and open-source tools using **Data Science and AI** for monitoring and modelling a wide diversity of environmental systems. 
 
-Through a set of interactive use cases, the resource aims to be a **living**, **open** and **community-driven** online resource guiding the scientific community about information extraction and analysis from environmental sensors (including ground sensors, drones, and satellite Earth observations) and other type of data from a wide diversity of sources, innovative research and open-source tools.
+Through the publication of executable use cases e.g. Jupyter Notebooks, the resource aims to be a **living**, **open** and **community-driven** online resource guiding the scientific community about information extraction and analysis from environmental sensors (including ground sensors, drones, and satellite Earth observations) and other type of data from a wide diversity of sources, innovative research and open-source tools.
 
-In addition to the book, our goal is to build a community dedicated to making collaborative, reusable and transparent Environmental data science research. In this regard, we host online {ref}`Collaboration Cafes <cm-coworking-collabcafe>` which are a coworking space aiming to engage anyone interested in learning and discussing relevant themes in data science and AI to help understand our changing planet.
