Limestone Neutralization: When acid rain falls to the earth, it undergoes a new round of physical and chemical changes. ...

It would be difficult to neutralise acidic rain. However, calcium oxide or calcium carbonate can be used to neutralise sulphur dioxide. This prevents sulphur dioxide reacting with water, thus preventing the formation of sulphuric acid. In other words, preventing the formation of acidic rain in the first place.
