"What if Earth had a planetary nervous system we could tune into and learn from? What wisdom would it share about navigating our current global challenges? Join us for an exploratory conversation with Dr. Sheila Hassel Hughes of Human Energy as we dive into the Noosphere, the emerging field of collective human consciousness that offers new pathways for addressing humanity's interconnected crises."

What if the next phase of human evolution isn’t a change in our bodies, but a radical expansion of consciousness — an organic, ever-shifting kaleidoscope woven from analogue experience and digital intelligence? Today, artificial intelligence is doing more than building tools: it is stitching our collective awareness into a living painting that responds, learns and grows with us.

Human Energy's CEO, Sheila Hassell Hughes, explores the noosphere on the The IDG Revolution Podcast By Dr. Max Klau and the Boston IDG Hub Team.

Robert Wright, in his engaging newsletter post, writes about how "Seeing the age of AI in cosmic perspective can help us navigate it"

Tthe first installment in an ongoing—and evolving—collaboration between Nonzero and Psychopolitica, featuring Robert Wright, Nikita Petrov, and Boris Shoshitaishvili.

In his blog post, Rick Bonetti explores the Human Energy Project’s work on the Noosphere—“the sphere of thought enveloping the Earth”—tracing its roots in the ideas of Pierre Teilhard de Chardin and Vladimir Vernadsky, and highlighting contemporary efforts like the Global Consciousness Project and the DeepTime Network. Bonetti’s article touches on the historical, scientific, and spiritual dimensions of humanity’s emerging global mind, illustrating how concepts such as the “Third Story” worldview and the Noosphere provide hope and meaning for our rapidly changing world.
