Which statement is false when comparing fission and fusion for electricity production?

Fusion releases 3-4 times as much energy as fission. Fission releases about a million times more energy than fossil fuels.

We currently use fission to produce electricity here in the US and around the world. Fusion is still in the research phase.

Nuclear waste from fission is the main drawback to it's use in electricity production. Fusion would produce harmless helium instead.

For electricity generation, fission uses hydrogen as its main fuel and fusion uses uranium.
