Well, there are 3 major types of ethical frameworks:

Deontology - Duty-based ethics, which generally have to do with the intention behind an action and whether or not it conforms to one's duties.

Consequentialism - ethics pertaining to the outcome of actions, typically having to do with the harm or well-being of sentient beings produced by the actions of other sentient life.

Virtue ethics - Deals with actions which build virtuous character.
