View from the Gettysburg National Tower, a 393 foot steel observation tower built on private land next to the battlefield.

#Billboards are not just #eyesores, negatively affecting people’s lives, by pushing #unhealthy products such as #FastFood and #alcohol, encouraging environmentally harmful #consumption and by lowering #MentalHealth.

Billboards also increase #inequality, located predominantly in the poorest and the most deprived communities.

"Local authority #planning systems need to accommodate people more widely. We are technically consulted but no efforts are made to seek us out".
