Going out on a limb here, but I doubt some super secret global conspiracy spraying chemicals overhead would label their sprayers "Chem-Trail" in the cockpit.
But then again, who knows? It's either a fake video or there is something called that in that airplane.
Stratospheric Welsbach seeding for reduction of global warming
Abstract
A method is described for reducing atmospheric or global warming resulting from the presence of heat-trapping gases in the atmosphere, i.e., from the greenhouse effect. Such gases are relatively transparent to sunshine, but absorb strongly the long-wavelength infrared radiation released by the earth. The method incudes the step of seeding the layer of heat-trapping gases in the atmosphere with particles of materials characterized by wavelength-dependent emissivity. Such materials include Welsbach materials and the oxides of metals which have high emissivity (and thus low reflectivities) in the visible and 8-12 micron infrared wavelength regions.

It's probably not a global conspiracy but I could certainly see polluting fuel additives causing chemtrails and the disinformation campaign is to prevent any legislation. Fuel additives saves airlines millions in fuel costs.

I think that the pilots typed "CHEM-TRAIL_GEN_-_ON" into their CDU (and didn't press enter or execute), that's why it is the last entry on the screen. The image of the display is a still picture so the 'plane may not even have been flying when they took the picture.
Also, the contrails could be seen emerging from the engines and are obviously condensed water vapor produced by the burning of jet fuel.
If you were spraying chemicals, you'd also run it from separate nozzles, especially if it had metallic particulates in the 'spray' (as is often suggested by "Chemtrail" theorists). You wouldn't run foreign matter through the US$27,500,000 (2011 list price) E90 engines, that'd be particularly stupid.
The pilots (whom I assume made the video) were pulling your leg.
