A geometric approach is used to construct the Colombeau algebra of distributions on a smooth manifold which includes the space of classical distributions on that manifold. The algebra is derived by intrinsic construction based on differential calculus so that it is a differential algebra in which its elements possess Lie derivatives with respect to arbitrary smooth vector fields. The algebra is furthermore shown to retain all the distinguishing properties of the local theory in a global context.
