The sea level doesn't really affect the climate, it's the reverse of your question. The climate is able to affect sea level because if the climate were hot, then there would be more evaporation, which means less water. Also, in hot climate ice can/will melt causing higher sea levels and more erosion on minerals and dirt. If the climate were freezing/cold, water could freeze, less overall flooding would occur, etc. However "climate" is the overall temperature and weather/patterns throughout the duration of 1+ year(s).

The accelerated greenhouse effect is causing global warming, which is making the ocean waters expand and glaciers and ice caps melt. This is making sea levels rise.
