Signs and signboards

A group of people is gathered on a sidewalk during daylight, holding signs related to environmental health concerns. One sign in the foreground reads, “Health Survey is a farce. We want OUT!” Another visible sign says, “Children should not be chemically treated.” People are dressed for cool weather, and some children are present. A yellow and blue hat is visible on one child. A city bus and buildings appear in the background.
