As the surface temperatures increase -> more glaciers melt -> sea level rises as summarized in the plot below. Deep oceans do play a role, and so do glaciers.So where's your graph that shows sea levels receding during the little ice age then?

If you look at the data at a finer scale…The graph shows 130m sea level rise of the past 20,000 years. 6.5m per millennia on average. 65cm per century, on average. IPCC projected sea level rise from 2000 to 2100 is 20 - 45cm. That's between 30 - 70% less than the average sea level rise for the past 20,000 years.
Also, glaciers are remnants of the little ice age, of a past climate that was once able to sustain them. With or without 20th century global warming they would be melting.

The WIN/Gallup End of Year Survey 2013 found the US was perceived to be the greatest threat to world peace by a huge margin, with 24% of respondents fearful of the US followed by: 8% for Pakistan, and 6% for China. This was followed by 5% each for: Afghanistan, Iran, Israel, North Korea. -LINK
"That's disgusting. There were clean athletes out there that have had their whole careers ruined by people like Lance Armstrong who just bended thoughts to fit their circumstances. He didn't look up cheating because he wanted to stop, he wanted to justify what he was doing and to keep that continuing on." - Nicole Cooke
