      No

      Actually also yes. Water vapor is a chemical.

        They’re actually called contrails.

        Chemtrail is something conspiracy nuts made up.

        But we really appreciate you left this comment because it made for some really funny replies.

          Also, they don’t spread the water vapor, they just make it visible.

            Water is a byproduct of proper combustion of fossil fuels. One of many. Sometimes you can see it drip from a car’s exhaust pipe, or the cloud from the tailpipe on a cold morning.

            Whether you see a contrail depends on the conditions the jet is flying through. They do tend to occur in high moisture areas because the ice crystals formed can’t evaporate as quickly as they would in dry air.

          Yes, also called contrails, short for condensation trails. Of water. A chemical.

          I know conspiracy nuts call them chemtrails implying chemicals that do various things to the population. But when they omit the specifics, then it’s some chemical, and it is.

        Not to mention the exhaust fumes which are often what makes the water vapor visible in the first place.
