This is Contractualism. If anyone wants to learn more about this moral philosophy, you can read Scanlon's What We Owe to Each Other, or for a better time, watch The Good Place.

More generally, this is the philosophy of deontology, or the study of duty/obligations if anyone is interested in seeing the whole eco system
