So far, rising sea levels have not had much impact on human activity, but if the sea level rises high enough, it will have an extremely large impact, since there are hundreds of millions, and possibly billions of people living in coastal regions, who could become refugees seeking places to live at higher elevation. And in a world that is already overcrowded, the consequences of such a mass evacuation would be incalculable.

When it rains does the sea level rise?

Sort of. Simply, rain is caused by water in the sea evaporating, forming clouds, and then clouds causing rain; this is called the water cycle. When there is heavy rainfall, it can cause flooding, which in turn destroys places, and can, in some cases, make the sea level rise slightly. So, rain is not directly affected with rising sea levels, but can have some affect on the overall level.
