Shifting species have negative implications for the equitable distribution of food provisioning services, increasing the complexity of resolving sovereignty claims and climate justice  . Higher-latitude countries generally have higher GHG emissions and will benefit from poleward-migrating resources from tropical poorer and lower-emitting GHG countries . In this context, climate justice supporting fishing arrangements could offset socioeconomic impacts from exiting species  and have negative implications particularly for small-scale operators , However, considerations of climate justice have not been used by Regional Fisheries Management Organizations  allocation shares to date .
