Well morals are quite emotionally rooted. While ethics incorporates that, but
it's quite scientific and involves analysing a case on all the evidence and
viewpoints.
For example imagine a person on life support, they're a vegetable, you can make
up the details. It can be 'morally wrong' to pull the plug yet an ethics
committee may decide it is 'ethical' to end the patients life.

What raging_otter said. Ethic is something set by society, while morals are
individual. Of course ppl from the same society may very welll have the same
morals
morals is something you come to set and realize as you grow...ethics is an ideal
that multiple people have come to agree...to me, they're the same thing :b

Actually, it's the other way around. Ethics are individually-set coda governing
actions in relation to personal views irrelevant of where those personal views
stem from. Morals are usually shared ethics in the public sense and governing
how they effect others, as opposed to how ethics govern oneself.
