cold blooded animals operate at whatever temperature is presented to them, and as such they slow when it's cold and can move around better when it's warmer. Mammals on the other hand can only operate at a very narrow temperature. The optimal human operating temperature is right around 98.6 deg Fahrenheit and if humans go much above that they start to degrade seriously.
Sweating allow mammals to cool. As the water evaporates it takes heat away from the skin surface cooling the mammal.
