In all the midst of the tremendous and welcome attention to  the climate change conference in Copenhagen little attention has been given to a miraculous development in the Global South.   Not only has Evo Morales won an overwhelming majority as President of Bolivia but his party, the Movement towards Socialism (MAS) has won 2/3 of the Senate and a strong majority in the House basically destroying the strength of the right-wing parties.

 While the rest of the world struggles to save a destructive economic and environmental system, the people of Bolivia, 70 per cent Indigenous,  are showing a path to a more democratic, egalitarian sustainable society and hardly anyone is watching.
