Sea levels would fall, because a lot of the earth's water would then be tied up (frozen) in these glaciers.

If all of Earth's glaciers were to get larger and new glaciers formed, it would lead to a decrease in global sea levels. This is because glaciers are formed when snow accumulates over a long period of time, compressing into ice. As more ice is stored in glaciers, less water is in the oceans, resulting in a lower sea level.
