Launched in 2004, the organisation operates globally with offices in the UK (headquarters), the United States and India. It acts as the secretariat for the Under2 Coalition, an alliance of state and regional governments around the world that are committed to reducing their greenhouse gas emissions to net-zero levels by 2050. As of 2022, the Under2 Coalition brings together over 270 governments representing 1.75 billion people and 50% of the world economy.

The organisation's business initiative, part of the We Mean Business Coalition, attempts to grow corporate demand for renewable energy, energy productivity and electric transport, through which it would plan to accelerate the transition to a zero-emissions economy while helping businesses reduce carbon footprints.
