Yeah, Los Angeles has this huge of a problem because of the California Environmental Quality Act; specifically "In other states and under NEPA [a federal law similar to CEQA], if your interests are primarily economic, you cannot sue under an environmental statute ... California has gone in a remarkably different direction." Ironically according to that Curbed article blackcat posted, most of these lawsuits have nothing to do with the environment and are often abused .
