Jason Ross is the Managing Publisher of Wood Central - the
world's largest news platform for forest-based news!  Wood Central has more than 170,000 users, with over 75% of users under 45, and 47% under 35! We cover all the news on the Wood Central website, across all media channels that interest our users, with fresh content from across the world updated all day, every day.
So whether it's the next generation of mass timber buildings, the carbon power in our lithium batteries, or even the use of Cold
War technology in monitoring carbon stock across the world's forests - scroll over to Wood Central to stay informed about all the news that matters!
Jason has a passion for green buildings - probably why Wood
Central is the only platform dedicated to writing up a new and unique project case study every day! As a former Green Star Accredited Professional (GSAP), he has been an active member in driving the adoption of Green Star projects in Australia - and is pushing for greener, cleaner, and more sustainable building
materials ahead of the Brisbane Olympic Games.  He has advised the Queensland State Government on environmental protection, heritage, housing, and public works.
From 2018 until 2022, Jason managed the PEFC brands in the
Australian and New Zealand markets and is passionate about growing the certification awareness and compliance across the Asia-Pacific region. Still, trying to figure out what forest certification is and why it matters?
An experienced spokesperson, Jason has presented to a
variety of forums, including the United Nations (Australia and New Zealand), the Property Council (Australia), Master Builder (Australia), the Building Designer Association of Australia (BDAA), the Australian Institute of Building, the National Retailers Association, the Green Building Council of Australia (GBCA) and New Zealand (NZGBC), the PEFC Council (Geneva, Switzerland), the Wood Processors Manufacturing Association (New Zealand) and the Australian Institute of Packaging (AIP).
