Water from the drought-affected Guadalquivir river trickles under the Roman bridge in Cordoba, southern Spain, November 2, 2009. Time has almost run out to break deadlock on a U.N. climate deal supposed to be struck in Copenhagen next month, the United Nations and Denmark warned negotiators at a final preparatory meeting on Monday in Barcelona. 'The clock has almost ticked down to zero,' Yvo de Boer, head of the U.N. Climate Change Secretariat, told officials from 175 nations at the opening of the November 2-6 talks in Barcelona.
