Answer

Changing "When people makes the choice to ride the bus" to "When people choose buses" replaces a buried-action noun phrase with a strong verb, applying concision (or eliminating nominalization).

Changing "fresh produce, exercise, and it also gives them a sense of community" to "fresh produce, exercise, and a sense of community" makes all list items share the same grammatical form, fixing parallel structure.

Changing "Delaying start times, the benefits are clear" to "Given this evidence, the benefits of later start times are clear" connects the opening phrase to the right subject, correcting a dangling modifier.

Changing "So like, tons of studies have been done" to "A large body of research confirms" raises the formality to suit an expository audience, adjusting register.

Changing "Students deserve to learn this. It will help them. They need it for adult life." into one combined sentence smooths a flat, repetitive rhythm by improving sentence variety.
