In this paper, we investigate properties long-term variations in galactic cosmic ray intensity as an important possible link in the connection between solar activity variation and global climate change. There are two main aims of the paper: (1) to estimate how solar activity influences on galactic CR long-term variations, what are the relative role in this influence of convection-diffusion modulation and drift modulation and (2) to estimate the expected part of global climate change which may be caused by the influence of solar activity cycle on climate through 11- and 22-year cosmic ray variations.
