Rising ocean levels could quite possibly cause a costal flood across the world. If the earth is warming, it can cause thermal expansion which makes the water expand. Also with the earth warming, it can cause land based ice to melt. This can cause the world to flood.
Is too much water or not enough water better?
I believe that neither would be good. If there is flooding, houses and factories along the coast line could be ruined. Also, if the factories are harmed, it could essentially ruin the economy which is not good for the world. If there isn't enough water, it causes a drought which, with heat added, can cause forest fires along the coast as well. This isn't good because it can damage homes, factories, businesses, and can even take lives. I think that right now we have the perfect amount of sea levels right now, there is not too much or too little water.
