In Roman and medieval times most of the ports of Europe are where they are today. Venice and Marseilles haven't moved a millimeter. A port in Turkey went high and dry and Alexandria moved but those were both due to documented earthquakes.
From that we can deduce that tempertures warmer than today didn't significantly change sea levels.
I do agree with danielpalos that other "remedies" than a vast increase in the power of an aready-too-powerful government would be a better response. For instance the US could loosen up regs that are impossible to comply with to allow new nuke plants to replace an aging fleet of nukes and coal-fired power plants. Viola! A one-third reduction in US emissions andbest of all the hyper-corrupt UN doesn't get a dime.
