Usufruct

In law, the right of using and enjoying all the advantages and profits of the property of another without altering or damaging it. A term Thomas Jefferson wrote about.

 

Or, to put it slightly differently: In law, the right of using and enjoying all the advantages and profits of the property, land, air, water, soil, creatures, atmosphere, bioregion, Earth of another generation without altering or damaging it, poisoning it, blowing it up, making it radio active, damming it, extincting it, eating it all, cutting it all down, mining it all, paving it, dumping on it, emptying it, taking it all.
