Our World 2.0 was launched in July 2008, in time for the 34th G8 summit.
In August 2009, Our World 2.0 became part of The Guardian's Environment Network.
The central tenet of Our World 2.0 is that humanity can use its collective knowledge, technology and design to facilitate creativity, innovation, and, most notably, collaboration amongst people in order to respond to these challenges.

Famous quotes containing the words history and/or mission:
“What has history to do with me? Mine is the first and only world! I want to report how I find the world. What others have told me about the world is a very small and incidental part of my experience. I have to judge the world, to measure things.”
—Ludwig Wittgenstein (1889–1951)
“The mission is too important to allow you to jeopardize it.”
—Stanley Kubrick (b. 1928)
