Can impact of global consciousness be measured?

The Global Consciousness Project is an international, multidisciplinary collaboration of scientists and engineers. 

They collect data continuously from a global network of physical random number generators located in up to 70 host sites around the world at any given time. The random number generators (RNGs) based on quantum tunnelling produce completely unpredictable sequences of zeroes and ones. 

When a great event synchronises the feelings of millions of people, the network of RNGs becomes subtly structured.  Calculations have indicated that the odds are one in a trillion that this effect is due to chance. 

When human consciousness becomes coherent, the behaviour of random systems may change. The evidence suggests an emerging noosphere or the unifying field of consciousness described by sages in all cultures.

The Global Consciousness Project, created originally in the Princeton Engineering Anomalies Research Lab at Princeton University, is directed by Roger Nelson from his home office in Princeton. 

The Institute of Noetic Sciences provides a logistical home for the GCP.
