If you're going to accuse Lomborg of inventing his figures, I think you need better evidence than the fact that a newspaper article he wrote is contradicted by someone else's press release.

You're also misrepresenting Simon's position, which is in fact clearly set out in the Wikipedia article you refer to. No one is suggesting that resources are physically infinite, but we're still waiting for any evidence that Malthus was right!

No, Lomborg's not a physical scientist, but then nothing in his writings seeks to question the climate science. He's a political scientist criticising the political-economic response.
