Would this is safe to do on a sunny warm weather? Would body heat plus the sun ruin the cream?

It's fairly safe. You can leave dairy products unrefrigerated for an uncomfortable amount of time :) Butter, in particular, can last for days outside a fridge.
The bacteria that tends to infest dairy products will usually (but not always) turn it into something tasty like yogurt.
Don't get me wrong, you can definitely get sick from spoiled dairy products, but it's not a 100% thing.

I’d be more concerned about having plastic bags against my skin when I’m sweating heavily than the effect the heat would have on the butter tbh. Hot weather is an excuse to wear less clothing, not wrap yourself in ziploc bags
> This tracks with the science; according to Scientific American, room-temperature cream turns to butter much faster than cold cream because the molecules move more quickly at higher temperatures. Of course, if the temperature gets too high, everything will just melt, so their experiment probably wouldn’t have worked on a summer run.

I assume they shamelessly were talking in Fahrenheit degrees.
On warmer days you could swap doing the washing for food preparation!
