FUND FACTS


FIVE FACTS EVERY SHAREHOLDER SHOULD KNOW ABOUT OPPENHEIMER GLOBAL ENVIRONMENT
FUND

1    The Fund seeks long-term capital appreciation through investment
     principally in companies offering products, services or processes that
     contribute to a cleaner and healthier environment. The Fund invests at
     least 65% of its assets in common stocks of environmental companies. In
     addition to companies located in the U.S., the Fund invests in the shares
     of companies in at least three foreign countries.(1)

2    The Fund's total return at net asset value was -0.88% for the six months
     ended March 31, 1994 and 4.18% for the 12 months ended on that date.(2)

3    The five largest holdings in the portfolio at March 31 were:(3)

     WHEELABRATOR TECHNOLOGIES, INC. A leader in the development of alternative
     energy systems.

     SITA. France's largest solid-waste disposal company.

     SCHWEIZERISCHE INDUSTRIE GMBH. Switzerland's leading manufacturer of
     thermal and pollution control machinery.

     OMEGA ENVIRONMENTAL, INC. An emerging leader in underground-tank management
     and removal.

     TETRA TECH, INC. A leader in specialized engineering, consulting, and
     pollution control services for oil and drilling companies.

4    Average annual total returns for the 1-year period ended March 31, 1994 and
     since inception on March 2, 1990 were -1.81% and -3.42%.(4)

5    "The outlook for the environmental sector is better today than it has been
     for some time. Earnings have generally improved along with the U.S.
     economy, economies across Europe are poised for a pickup, and the deadline
     for compliance with the Clean Air and Water Act in the U.S. is getting
     closer. The Fund's portfolio is positioned to benefit from all these
     developments."
                                  PORTFOLIO MANAGER JOHN WALLACE, MARCH 31, 1994

IN THIS REPORT:

ANSWERS TO THREE TIMELY QUESTIONS YOU SHOULD ASK YOUR FUND'S MANAGERS.

- - -    HAS THE IMPROVING U.S. ECONOMY AFFECTED ENVIRONMENTAL STOCKS AND THE FUND'S
INVESTMENT STRATEGY?

- - -    ARE YOU FINDING ANY GROWTH OPPORTUNITIES OUTSIDE THE U.S.?

- - -    ARE THERE ANY ENVIRONMENTAL SECTORS YOU'RE CAUTIOUS ABOUT?



(1)  Global investment risks, such as currency exchange fluctuations, political
     developments and difficulties in trading in foreign markets, can increase
     the possibility of share price fluctuation. The special risks of investing
     in foreign securities are described in greater detail in the Fund's
     prospectus.
(2)  Based on the change in net asset value per share from 9/30/93 and 3/31/93
     to 3/31/94, without considering the sales charge. All performance figures
     assume reinvestment of dividends.
(3)  The Fund's portfolio is subject to change.
(4)  Average annual total returns are for a hypothetical investment held until
     3/31/94, after deducting the maximum initial sales charge of 5.75%.
     Performance figures assume reinvestment of dividends and capital gains
     distributions.
     Past performance does not guarantee future results. The principal value and
     return of an investment in the Fund will fluctuate so that an investor's
     shares, when redeemed, may be worth more or less than the original cost.

REPORT TO SHAREHOLDERS

The outlook for the environmental sector continued to improve somewhat over the
past six months. While the stock market overall declined broadly on the heels of
two moves by the Federal Reserve Board to raise interest rates in February and
March, your Fund's net asset value did not decline significantly, and it posted
a total return at net asset value of -0.88% for the six months ended March 31,
1994 and 4.18% for the twelve months ended on that date.(5)

          While your management team doesn't expect a rapid rise in the value of
environmental stocks from current levels, several factors suggest that the
sector will benefit from gradual gains in the months ahead.

          Most important, business earnings are improving as the U.S. economy
strengthens and, as a result, companies are increasing spending on environmental
projects postponed during the recession. As the deadline for compliance with the
Clean Air and Water Act draws nearer, this spending should rise even further,
and should help boost the profits and stock prices of well-managed environmental
companies.

          Environmental stocks worldwide also continue to trade at low prices
relative to their earnings growth. We believe that value can be found in the
stocks of well-financed environmental firms both in European markets, which seem
ready to rebound from their recessions, and in fast-developing Asian markets.

          To capitalize on these developments, your Fund's managers took profits
in the non-environmental stocks into which we had diversified during the
economic downturn, using the proceeds to build positions in high-potential
environmental areas.

          We added to positions in companies expected to benefit immediately
from improving corporate earnings, emphasizing engineering and construction
companies, and equipment manufacturers. We also expanded positions in pollution
control companies, as well as in independent energy producers in the U.S. and
offshore, such as Magma Power and Deutsche Babcock.

          Overseas, we continued to focus on large, market-leading environmental
companies, such as Atwoods PLC in the U.K. and Compagnie Generale des Eaux in
France.

          Our optimism about the sector is tempered somewhat by earnings
disappointments in areas such as hazardous and solid waste management--areas
which we continue to approach cautiously--as well as by the Clinton
Administration's preoccupation with issues other than the environment. On
balance, however, we see growth opportunities in carefully selected
environmental stocks.

          We appreciate your confidence in Oppenheimer Global Environment Fund,
and look forward to continuing to help you meet your investment goals.

     Notes to Financial Statements  (Unaudited)

1.   Significant Accounting Policies

     Oppenheimer Global Environment Fund (the Fund) is registered under the
Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, as a diversified, open-end
management investment company. The Fund's investment advisor is Oppenheimer
Management Corporation (the Manager). The following is a summary of significant
accounting policies consistently followed by the Fund.
- - ------------
Investment Valuation. Portfolio securities are valued at 4:00 p.m. (New York
time) on each trading day. Listed and unlisted securities for which such
information is regularly reported are valued at the last sale price of the day
or, in the absence of sales, at values based on the closing bid or asked price
or the last sale price on the prior trading day. Long-term debt securities are
valued by a portfolio pricing service approved by the Board of Trustees.
Long-term debt securities which cannot be valued by the approved portfolio
pricing service are valued by averaging the mean between the bid and asked
prices obtained from two active market makers in such securities. Short-term
debt securities having a remaining maturity of 60 days or less are valued at
cost (or last determined market value) adjusted for amortization to maturity of
any premium or discount. Securities for which market quotes are not readily
available are valued under procedures established by the Board of Trustees to
determine fair value in good faith.
- - ------------
Foreign Currency Translation. The accounting records of the Fund are maintained
in U.S. dollars. Prices of securities denominated in foreign currencies are
translated into U.S. dollars at the closing rates of exchange. Amounts related
to the purchase and sale of securities and investment income are translated at
the rates of exchange prevailing on the respective dates of such transactions.
     The Fund generally enters into forward currency exchange contracts as a
hedge, upon the purchase or sale of a security denominated in a foreign
currency. Risks may arise from the potential inability of the counterparty to
meet the terms of the contract and from unanticipated movements in the value of
a foreign currency relative to the U.S. dollar.
     The effect of changes in foreign currency exchange rates on investments is
separately identified from the fluctuations arising from changes in market
values of securities held and reported with all other foreign currency gains and
losses in the Fund's results of operations.
- - ------------
Repurchase Agreements. The Fund requires the custodian to take possession, to
have legally segregated in the Federal Reserve Book Entry System or to have
segregated within the custodian's vault, all securities held as collateral for
repurchase agreements. If the seller of the agreement defaults and the value of
the collateral declines, or if the seller enters an insolvency proceeding,
realization of the value of the collateral by the Fund may be delayed or
limited.
- - ------------
Federal Income Taxes. The Fund intends to continue to comply with provisions of
the Internal Revenue Code applicable to regulated investment companies and to
distribute all of its taxable income, including any net realized gain on
investments not offset by loss carryovers, to shareholders. Therefore, no
federal income tax provision is required. At March 31, 1994, the Fund had

Trustees' Fees and Expenses. The Fund has adopted a nonfunded retirement plan
for the Fund's independent trustees. Benefits are based on years of service and
fees paid to each trustee during the years of service. The accumulated liability
for the Fund's projected benefit obligations was $27,807 at March 31, 1994. No
payments have been made under the plan.
- - ------------
Organization Costs. The Manager advanced $13,603 for organization and start-up
costs of the Fund. Such expenses are being amortized over a five-year period
from the date operations commenced. In the event that all or part of the
Manager's initial investment in shares of the Fund is withdrawn during the
amortization period, the redemption proceeds will be reduced to reimburse the
Fund for any unamortized expenses, in the same ratio as the number of shares
redeemed bears to the number of initial shares outstanding at the time of such
redemption.

agreed to reimburse the Fund if aggregate expenses (with specified exceptions)
exceed the most stringent applicable regulatory limit on Fund expenses.
For the six months ended March 31, 1994, commissions (sales charges paid by
investors) on sales of Fund shares totaled $69,822, of which $17,571 was
retained by Oppenheimer Funds Distributor, Inc. (OFDI), a subsidiary of the
Manager, as general distributor, and by an affiliated broker/dealer.
Oppenheimer Shareholder Services (OSS), a division of the Manager, is the
transfer and shareholder servicing agent for the Fund, and for other registered
investment companies. OSS's total costs of providing such services are allocated
ratably to these companies.
Under an approved service plan, the Fund may expend up to .25% of its net assets
annually to reimburse OFDI for costs incurred in connection with the personal
service and maintenance of accounts that hold shares of the Fund, including
amounts paid to brokers, dealers, banks and other institutions. During the six
months ended March 31, 1994, OFDI paid $1,266 to an affiliated broker/dealer as
reimbursement for personal service and maintenance expenses.

5.   Restricted Securities
     The Fund owns securities purchased in private placement transactions,
without registration under the Securities Act of 1933 (the Act). The securities
are valued under methods approved by the Board of Trustees as reflecting fair
value. The Fund intends to invest no more than 10% of its net assets (determined
at the time of purchase) in restricted and illiquid securities, excluding
securities eligible for resale pursuant to Rule 144A of the Act that are
determined to be liquid by the Board of Trustees or by the Manager under
Board-approved guidelines.
