: The fourth author serves as an advisor to VirZoom, who makes the video game called Fly VR which was used to display the immersive city scenes in this study. The lead author chose to use Fly VR before learning about the fourth author’s minor affiliation with the company. While the videogame company likely will not benefit from research results about immersion and climate change, it is important to acknowledge this possible perceived conflict of interest. The fourth author’s relationship with the organization was reviewed and approved by Stanford University before data collection for the study began. All the remaining authors declare no conflict of interest.
