Abstract
Reed Bed municipal treatment technique is introduced which will surely play an effective and actual role in climate change and environment. Knowledge and skills will expand to the other community and this will contribute to healthy atmosphere. The major areas to be focused here are plantation, recharge of groundwater, irrigation for coastal, arid and semi-arid areas. Technology will therefore helpful in climate change and awareness regarding the wastewater contamination, especially stakeholder by mobilization activities and their capacities will be built as to how to minimize the contamination and recycle the water at micro and macro level. It produces quality fertile water for irrigation purposes. Presently fresh water is being used for irrigation and planting and fresh water will be saved. It is economical and cost-effective tool and study will contribute to avoid making water deficient sustainability.
