Well, at least Doc Brown didn't try to run his Mr. Fusion on iron...

What about sea water? Not a nuclear engineer but it appears we have a lot of it.

Tough to run a fusion reactor on anything above about lithium. That is Hydrogen, Helium, Lithium are about the only ones we could manage to do, at least right now. I mentioned iron, specifically Fe 56, because that one can't be fusioned into anything heavier without adding energy. That is, to make something heavier you have to add energy and you get no energy out.
Doing anything above lithium requires too much input energy to get the reaction to go. So while you would still get a net positive output, there's no current known equipment you can use to get the energy to mush the atoms together with.
What you need are elements you can fuse into heavier ones. So, 2 hydrogen become a helium. A helium and a hydrogen become a lithium, and so on.
Then there's this. It applies to science fiction movies too...

What about it? Fusion plants don't run on seawater.

Who? How do you know he will not replace it with electric? Of course, Biden did not say anything about gas stoves. https://www.politico.com/news/2023/01/14/joe-biden-gas-stoves-00077944

Lie.

That flame is too high.
You are lying again. Biden explained nobody is doing anything about gas stoves. I wondered who would be stupid enough to jump into that phony outrage. You are setting records for lying posts. https://www.cnn.com/2023/01/11/politics/biden-gas-stoves/index.html

Hollywood routinely makes candle flames too high because they think it looks better....I suspect that this picture is staged/scripted.
