The effects of climate change, such as ocean warming or the lowering of pH values, could lead to a reduction or migration of fishing stocks during the next 15 to 20 years, due to possible changes in the swarming and spawning behavior of the stocks. The bulk of the deep-freeze raw goods for the German fishing industry currently comes from countries which are not members of the EU. In the future, therefore, a more effective management of available resources and a stock-maintaining management of fish species for the supply of the market will be necessary.

Rather than focusing on climate-protection measures, the Bremen Cargo Distribution Center (GVZ Bremen) has identified measures for adaptation to climate change. In 2011 and 2012 the Institute of Shipping Economics and Logistics (ISL), together with the Bremen University of Applied Science, carried out a comprehensive empirical investigation of the effects of climate change on the logistics sector of the Metropolitan Region Bremen-Oldenburg in the Northwest. The results clearly show that the expected impacts of climate change could mean a new challenge, both for the GVZ and for individual companies at the Center.
