This is the heartbreaking moment a turtle chocked on a piece of plastic. <br /><br />Video shows the turtle approaching the camera and gagging before spitting out a piece of clear plastic. <br /><br />Diver Brittany Ziegler, 34, capture the moment on camera during a livestream about a plastic clear-up in Oahu, Hawaii, USA, to celebrate Earth Day.<br /><br />Brittany, a content creator from Maui, Hawaii, USA said: "We were on Oahu for a weekend pledge against plastics so it was ironic that we captured that awful footage of the turtle on that day.<br /><br />"Over 100 people showed up on the day and we cleared up a few thousand pounds worth of plastic out of the ocean.<br /><br />"Whilst we were live streaming the clean up to thousands of people on my TikTok, this beautiful green sea turtle slowly approached us and spat this plastic out.<br /><br />"I just thought you poor baby, we don't know how much plastic she could've had in her stomach either.<br /><br />"She just swam right up to us, looked in the camera and spat the plastic right out. It was like she was trying to tell us something.<br /><br />"They love to eat jellyfish and they just cant tell the difference."<br /><br />Brittany streams her ocean dives on her Instagram and TikTok (@divedivelive) with the aim to get people invested in our oceans and their ecosystems.<br /><br />She said: "I've been doing this for two years but didn't really start getting noticed until about a year ago.<br /><br />"The page has been growing a lot but many people who watch don't dive themselves so the aim is to get more people in the water and to fall in love with the ocean.<br /><br />"We take people out on dives in Maui to allow them to see animals underwater up close in the hope that they will built a connection and want to help."
