> Maybe more appropriate topic of discussion should be how climate change affects the people of France and what can be done about it

That's what Zadkey was doing, though.

Not constructively. Zadkey essentially derided France for being unprepared for a situation for which they had no true context. If you take no issue with Zadkey's comment, then I'd assume you have no issue with the Harvey response.
They're a bit blunt, maybe, but I don't see any derision. They described factually how Texas prepares for their summer heat, and expressed hope that France can do the same now that their climate is changing.
