Well, the hairspray would have been used anyway, so it makes little difference who sprayed what from that single can, and where...
In any case, it is the typical rebelliousness of the young - they are now being told from an early age that pollution is wrong and inherently evil, so its not surprising if that would make the occasional anti-green action fun and attractive - the very thought that one small action of a child kills polar bears, destroys the livelihood of fishermen and pulls the Earth's orbit a bit closer to the sun, must be a very tempting way to defy the authorities and assert independence. After all, are Al Gore and Paul McCartney exactly cool to the rebellious youth? The only geriatrics that may appeal to them are the ones with the highest carbon footprint, like Keith Richards (may be they can use this idea to resurrect their career).
