nepocide 

The act of willingly sacrificing future generations for current convenience.
The politicians that continue to give oil companies financial subsidies, the people that let their car idle when parked and the homeowners that run their AC on max knowing that we are facing a climate crisis which we are running out of time to solve, are all committing nepocide.
